Abstract

Let W is a γ_hs-set of G. A subset T of W is called a forcing subset of W if W is the unique γ_hs-set containing T. The minimum cardinality of T is the forcing Steiner hop domination number of W and is denoted by f_(γ_hs ) (G). The forcing Steiner hop domination number of G is f_(γ_hs ) (G)= min {f_(γ_hs ) (G)}, where the minimum is taken over all γ_hs-sets of G. It is shown that for every pair of integers a and b with 0 ≤ a ≤ b and b≥ a+2, there exists a connected graph G such that f_(γ_hs ) (G)=a and γ_hs (G)=b.
