Abstract: For any positive integer k and any graph G, let ι(G,k) denote the size of a smallest set D of vertices of G such that the graph obtained from G by deleting the closed neighbourhood of D contains no k-clique. Thus, ι(G, 1) is the domination number of G. We prove that if m is the number of edges of a connected graph G that is not a k-clique, then ι(G,k) ≤ m+1/ (k 2)+2. We also characterize the graphs that attain the bound
