Abstract

The \textit{domination number} $\gamma(\cH)$ of a hypergraph $\cH=(V(\cH),E(\cH))$ is the minimum size of a subset $D\subset V(\cH)$ of the vertices such that for every $v\in V(\cH)\setminus D$ there exist a vertex $d \in D$ and an edge $H\in E(\cH)$ with $v,d\in H$. We address the problem of finding the minimum number $n(k,\gamma)$ of vertices that a $k$-uniform hypergraph $\cH$ can have if $\gamma(\cH)\ge \gamma$ and $\cH$ does not contain isolated vertices. We prove that $$n(k,\gamma)=k+\Theta(k^{1-1/\gamma})$$ and also consider the $s$-wise dominating and the distance-$l$ dominating version of the problem. In particular, we show that the minimum number $n_{dc}(k,\gamma, l)$ of vertices that a connected $k$-uniform hypergraph with distance-$l$ domination number $\gamma$ can have is roughly $\frac{k\gamma l}{2}$.
