A dominating set of a graph is a set of vertices such that every vertex in the graph is either in or is adjacent to a vertex in . The domination number of a graph , denoted , is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of . We show that if is an -vertex maximal outerplanar graph, then , where is the number of vertices of degree in . We show that this bound is tight for all . Upper-bounds for are known for a few classes of graphs.
