Summary: If $G$ is a simple graph of size $n$ without isolated vertices and $\overline{G}$ is its complement, we show that the domination numbers of $G$ and $\overline{G}$ satisfy \[ \gamma (G) + \gamma (\overline{G}) \le \left\rbrace \begin{array}{ll}n-\delta + 2 \quad \text{if} \quad \gamma (G) > 3, \delta + 3 \quad \text{if} \quad \gamma (\overline{G}) > 3, \end{array}\right.\] where $\delta $ is the minimum degree of vertices in $G$. (English)
