Abstract

This paper studies the concepts of D-boundary vertex, D-interior vertex, D-null vertex, D-closure of a graph and D-closed graph, based on the idea of  D-distance. We investigate the structural properties of these concepts and determine whether some special classes of graphs are D-closed or not.
