Summary: For an ordered set $W =\lbrace w_1, w_2, \cdots , w_k\rbrace $ of vertices and a vertex $v$ in a connected graph $G$, the (metric) representation of $v$ with respect to $W$ is the $k$-vector $r(v|W) = (d(v, w_1),d(v, w_2) ,\cdots , d(v, w_k))$, where $d(x,y)$ represents the distance between the vertices $x$ and $y$. The set $W$ is a resolving set for $G$ if distinct vertices of $G$ have distinct representations with respect to $W$. A resolving set of minimum cardinality is called a minimum resolving set or a basis and the cardinality of a basis for $G$ is its dimension $\dim G$. A set $S$ of vertices in $G$ is a dominating set for $G$ if every vertex of $G$ that is not in $S$ is adjacent to some vertex of $S$. The minimum cardinality of a dominating set is the domination number $\gamma (G)$. A set of vertices of a graph $G$ that is both resolving and dominating is a resolving dominating set. The minimum cardinality of a resolving dominating set is called the resolving domination number $\gamma _r(G)$. In this paper, we investigate the relationship among these three parameters. (English)
