We study the classic Dominating Set problem with respect to several prominent parameters. Specifically, we present algorithmic results that sidestep time complexity barriers by the incorporation of either approximation or larger parameterization. Our results span several parameterization regimes, including: (i,ii,iii) time/ratio-tradeoff for the parameters treewidth, vertex modulator to constant treewidth and solution size; (iv,v) FPT-algorithms for the parameters vertex cover number and feedback edge set number; and (vi) compression for the parameter feedback edge set number.
