文摘The minimal dominating set for a digraph(directed graph) is a prototypical hard combinatorial optimization problem. In a previous paper, we studied this problem using the cavity method. Although we found a solution for a given graph that gives very good estimate of the minimal dominating size, we further developed the one step replica symmetry breaking theory to determine the ground state energy of the undirected minimal dominating set problem. The solution space for the undirected minimal dominating set problem exhibits both condensation transition and cluster transition on regular random graphs. We also developed the zero temperature survey propagation algorithm on undirected Erds-Rnyi graphs to find the ground state energy. In this paper we continue to develope the one step replica symmetry breaking theory to find the ground state energy for the directed minimal dominating set problem. We find the following.(i) The warning propagation equation can not converge when the connectivity is greater than the core percolation threshold value of 3.704. Positive edges have two types warning, but the negative edges have one.(ii) We determine the ground state energy and the transition point of the Erd?os-R′enyi random graph.(iii) The survey propagation decimation algorithm has good results comparable with the belief propagation decimation algorithm.
