On the number of isolate dominating sets of certain graphs

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A dominating set of $G$ is a subset $S\subseteq V$ such that every vertex not in $S$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $S$. The cardinality of a smallest dominating set of $G$, denoted by $γ(G)$, is the domination number of $G$. A dominating set $S$ is an isolate dominating set of $G$, if the induced subgraph $G[S]$ has at least one isolated vertex. The isolate domination number, $γ_0(G)$, is the minimum cardinality of an isolate dominating set of $G$. In this paper, we count the number of isolate dominating sets of some specific graphs.
