Weighted stability in hypergraphs and weighted domination in split graphs



Authors: I. E. Zverovich

ABSTRACT

We define a family of hereditary subclasses of split graphs where the weighted domination problem is polynomially solvable. Our approach is similar to that of Balas and Yu \cite{BalasY89} for maximal stable sets in graphs.

We apply the result to the subproblem of finding the weighted stability number of a hypergraph.
