Derived explicit and recursive formulas for domination reliability.
Established an analogue of Whitney's broken circuit theorem.
Proved that computing domination reliability is NP-hard.
Abstract
We propose a new network reliability measure for some particular kind of service networks, which we refer to as domination reliability. We relate this new reliability measure to the domination polynomial of a graph and the coverage probability of a hypergraph. We derive explicit and recursive formulae for domination reliability and its associated domination reliability polynomial, deduce an analogue of Whitney's broken circuit theorem, and prove that computing domination reliability is NP-hard.
