%N Bondage number of the Cartesian product graph G = C_n X C_3.

%C Theorem 5.1.2 of Xu, and proved in Sohn, 2007. The bondage number of a nonempty graph G is the cardinality of a smallest edge set whose removal from G results in a graph with domination number greater than the domination number of G.
