N2 - For a graph G = (V,E), a set D ⊂ V (G) is a strong dominating set of G, if for everyvertex x ∈ V (G)\D there is a vertex y ∈ D with xy ∈ E(G) and deg(x) ≤ deg(y). Astrong coalition consists of two disjoint sets of vertices V1 and V2, neither of which is a strong dominating set but whose union V1 ∪ V2 is a strong dominating set. A vertex partition Ω = {V1, V2, . . . , Vk} of vertices in G is a strong coalition partition if every set Vi ∈ Ω either is a strong dominating set consisting of a single vertex of degree n − 1, or is not a strong dominating set but forms a strong coalition with another set Vj ∈ Ω that is not a strong dominating set. In this paper, we study properties of strong coalitions in graphs.
