Abstract: The domination problem of graphs is an important issue in the field of graph theory. This paper mainly considers the Italian domination number of the strong product between two paths. By constructing recursive Italian dominating functions, the upper bound of its Italian domination number is obtained, and then a partition method is proposed to prove its lower bound. Finally, this paper yields a sharp bound for the Italian domination number of the strong product of paths.

Key words: Partitioning approach, Roman domination, Italian domination, Strong product
