Abstract
In this research article, we introduce certain concepts, including domination, total domination, strong domination, weak domination, edge domination and total edge domination in m-polar fuzzy graphs. We describe these concepts by several examples. We investigate some related properties of certain dominations in m-polar fuzzy graphs. We also present a decision making method based on domination in m-polar fuzzy graphs.
Keywords
dominating set; total dominating set; independent set; strong dominating set; weak dominating set; edge dominating set; decision making method;
