The complete-bipartite majority out-domination conjecture

From papers

Let Kr,sK_{r,s} be a complete bipartite graph with 2rs2\leq r\leq s, and let DOMmaj+(Kr,s)DOM^+_{maj}(K_{r,s}) denote the minimum cardinality of a set that is a majority out-dominating set in an orientation of Kr,sK_{r,s}, as defined in the source.

Complete-bipartite majority out-domination conjecture.

DOMmaj+(Kr,s)={2if r+s is even,3if r+s is odd.DOM^+_{maj}(K_{r,s})=\begin{cases}2&\text{if }r+s\text{ is even},\\\\3&\text{if }r+s\text{ is odd}. \end{cases}

The conjecture follows a proposition establishing the corresponding signed-function value dommaj+(Kr,s)=4(r+s)dom^+_{maj}(K_{r,s})=4-(r+s) for every orientation. The stronger cardinality assertion for DOMmaj+DOM^+_{maj} is stated here without a resolution.
