%N Triangle read by rows: Independent domination number for rectangular queens graph Q(n,m), 1 <= n <= m.

%C The queens graph Q(n X m) has the squares of the n X m chessboard as its vertices; two squares are adjacent if they are both in the same row, column, or diagonal of the board. A set D of squares of Q(n X m) is a dominating set for Q(n X m) if every square of Q(n X m) is either in D or adjacent to a square in D. The minimum size of an independent dominating set of Q(n X m) is the independent domination number, denoted by i(Q(n X m)).

%C Less formally, i(Q(n X m)) is the number of independent queens that are necessary and sufficient to all squares of the n X m chessboard be occupied or attacked.

%C Chessboards 8 X 11 and 18 X 11 are of special interest, because they cannot be dominated by 5 and 8 independent queens, respectively, although the larger boards 9 X 11, 10 X 11, 11 X 11 and 18 X 12 are. It is open how many such counterexamples of this kind of monotonicity exist.
