Zverovich [Discuss. Math. Graph Theory 23 (2003), 159-162.] has proved that the domination number and connected domination number are equal on all connected graphs without induced P₅ and C₅. Here we show (with an independent proof) that the following stronger result is also valid: Every P₅-free and C₅-free connected graph contains a minimum-size dominating set that induces a complete subgraph.
Keywords: graph domination, connected domination, complete subgraph, forbidden induced subgraph, characterization
