Abstract:
A vertex-edge Roman dominating function (or just ve-RDF) of a graph G = (V,E) is a function f : V (G) →{0, 1, 2} such that for each edge e = uv either max{f(u),f(v)}≠0 or there exists a vertex w such that either wu ∈ E or wv ∈ E and f(w) = 2. The weight of a ve-RDF is the sum of its function values over all vertices. The vertex-edge Roman domination number of a graph G, denoted by γveR(G), is the minimum weight of a ve-RDF G. In this paper, we initiate a study of vertex-edge Roman dominaton. We first show that determining the number γveR(G) is NP-complete even for bipartite graphs. Then we show that if T is a tree different from a star with order n, l leaves and s support vertices, then γveR(T) ≥ (n − l − s + 3)∕2, and we characterize the trees attaining this lower bound. Finally, we provide a characterization of all trees with γveR(T) = 2γ′(T), where γ′(T) is the edge domination number of T.

Abstract:
Let k ∈ Z +. A k − distance Roman dominating function (kDRDF) on G = (V, E) is a function f : V → {0, 1, 2} such that for every vertex v with f(v) = 0, there is a vertex u with f(u) = 2 with d(u, v) ≤ k. The function f is a global k − distance Roman dominating function (GkDRDF) on G if and only if f is a k − distance Roman dominating function (kDRDF) on G and on its complement G. The weight of the global k − distance Roman dominating function (GkDRDF) f is the value w(f) = P x∈V f(x). The minimum weight of the global k − distance Roman dominating function (GkDRDF) on the graph G is called the global k − distance Roman domination number of G and is denoted as γ k gR(G). A γ k gR(G) − function is the global k − distance Roman dominating function on G with weight γ k gR(G). Note that, the global 1 − distance Roman domination number γ 1 gR(G) is the usual global Roman domination number γgR(G), that is, γ 1 gR(G) = γgR(G). The authors initiated this study. In this paper, the authors obtained and established the following results: preliminary results on global distance Roman domination; the global distance Roman domination on Kn, Kn, Pn, and Cn; and, some bounds and characterizations of global distance Roman domination over any graphs.

Abstract:
Let G be a graph with vertex set V(G). A function f: V(G) → {0, 1, 2} with the ordered partition (V0, V1, V2) of V(G), where Vi = {V∈V(G) | f(V) = i} for i = 0, 1, 2, is a Roman dominating function if x ∈ V0 implies |N(x)∩V2|≥ 1. It is a unique response Roman function if x ∈ V0 implies |N(x) ≥ V2|≤ 1 and x ∈ V1 ∪ V2 implies that |N(x) ∩ V2| = 0. A function f: V(G) → {0, 1, 2} is a unique response Roman dominating function if it is both a unique response Roman function and a Roman dominating function. The unique response Roman domination number, denoted by uR(G), of G is the minimum weight of a unique response Roman dominating function. In this paper we study the unique response Roman domination of graphs, and provide some graphs whose unique response Roman domination number equals to the independent Roman domination number.

Abstract:
A Roman dominating function (RDF) on a graph G is a function f : V (G) ? {0,1,2} satisfying the condition that every vertex u with f(u) = 0 is adjacent to at least one vertex v of G for which f(v) = 2. The weight of a Roman dominating function is the sum f(V) = ?v?V f(v), and the minimum weight of a Roman dominating function f is the Roman domination number ?R(G). An RDF f is called an independent Roman dominating function (IRDF) if the set of vertices assigned positive values under f is independent. The independent Roman domination number iR(G) is the minimum weight of an IRDF on G. We show that for every nontrivial connected graph G with maximum degree ?, ?R(G)? ?+1/??(G) and iR(G) ? i(G) + ?(G)/?, where ?(G) and i(G) are, respectively, the domination and independent domination numbers of G. Moreover, we characterize the connected graphs attaining each lower bound. We give an additional lower bound for ?R(G) and compare our two new bounds on ?R(G) with some known lower bounds.

For a graph G = ( V , E ) with vertex set V = V ( G ) and edge set E = E ( G ) , a Roman { 3 } -dominating function (R { 3 } -DF) is a function f : V ( G ) → { 0 , 1 , 2 , 3 } having the property that ∑ u ∈ N G ( v ) f ( u ) ≥ 3 , if f ( v ) = 0 , and ∑ u ∈ N G ( v ) f ( u ) ≥ 2 , if f ( v ) = 1 for any vertex v ∈ V ( G ) . The weight of a Roman { 3 } -dominating function f is the sum f ( V ) = ∑ v ∈ V ( G ) f ( v ) and the minimum weight of a Roman { 3 } -dominating function on G is the Roman { 3 } -domination number of G, denoted by γ { R 3 } ( G ) . Let G be a graph with no isolated vertices. The total Roman { 3 } -dominating function on G is an R { 3 } -DF f on G with the additional property that every vertex v ∈ V with f ( v ) ≠ 0 has a neighbor w with f ( w ) ≠ 0 . The minimum weight of a total Roman { 3 } -dominating function on G, is called the total Roman { 3 } -domination number denoted by γ t { R 3 } ( G ) . We initiate the study of total Roman { 3 } -domination and show its relationship to other domination parameters. We present an upper bound on the total Roman { 3 } -domination number of a connected graph G in terms of the order of G and characterize the graphs attaining this bound. Finally, we investigate the complexity of total Roman { 3 } -domination for bipartite graphs.

On the other hand, we prove that the Roman domination number of rooted product graphs can attain only three possible values, which depend on the order, the domination number, and the Roman domination number of the factors in the product. In addition, theoretical characterizations of the classes of rooted product graphs achieving each of these three possible values are given.</p></abstract>

A map f : V?(0,1,2) is a Roman dominating function on a graph G = (V,E) if for every vertex v ? V with f(v)=0, there exists a vertex u, adjacent to v, such that f(u)=2. The weight of a Roman dominating function is given by f(V)=?u?V f(u). The minimum weight among all Roman dominating functions on G is called the Roman domination number of G. In this article we study the Roman domination number of Generalized Sierpi?ski graphs S(G,t). More precisely, we obtain a general upper bound on the Roman domination number of S(G,t) and discuss the tightness of this bound. In particular, we focus on the cases in which the base graph G is a path, a cycle, a complete graph or a graph having exactly one universal vertex.

Abstract:
Let G = ( V , E ) be a graph and f : V ⟶ { 0 , 1 , 2 } be a function. Given a vertex u with f ( u ) = 0 , if all neighbors of u have zero weights, then u is called undefended with respect to f. Furthermore, if every vertex u with f ( u ) = 0 has a neighbor v with f ( v ) > 0 and the function f ′ : V ⟶ { 0 , 1 , 2 } with f ′ ( u ) = 1 , f ′ ( v ) = f ( v ) − 1 , f ′ ( w ) = f ( w ) if w ∈ V ∖ { u , v } has no undefended vertex, then f is called a weak Roman dominating function. Also, the function f is a perfect Roman dominating function if every vertex u with f ( u ) = 0 is adjacent to exactly one vertex v for which f ( v ) = 2 . Let the weight of f be w ( f ) = ∑ v ∈ V f ( v ) . The weak (resp., perfect) Roman domination number, denoted by γ r ( G ) (resp., γ R p ( G ) ), is the minimum weight of the weak (resp., perfect) Roman dominating function in G. In this paper, we characterize those trees where the perfect Roman domination number strongly equals the weak Roman domination number, in the sense that each weak Roman dominating function of minimum weight is, at the same time, perfect Roman dominating.

Abstract:
For a graph $G=(V, E)$, a triple Roman domination function is a function $f: V(G)\longrightarrow\{0, 1, 2, 3, 4\}$ having the property that for any vertex $v\in V(G)$, if $f(v)<3$, then $f(\mbox{AN}[v])\geq|\mbox{AN}(v)|+3$, where $\mbox{AN}(v)=\{w\in N(v)\mid f(w)\geq1\}$ and $\mbox{AN}[v]=\mbox{AN}(v)\cup\{v\}$. The weight of a triple Roman dominating function $f$ is the value $\omega(f)=\sum_{v\in V(G)}f(v)$. The triple Roman domination number of $G$, denoted by $\gamma_{[3R]}(G)$, equals the minimum weight of a triple Roman dominating function on $G$. {\em The triple Roman domination subdivision number} $\mbox{sd}_{\gamma_{[3R]}}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided (each edge in $G$ can be subdivided at most once) in order to increase the triple Roman domination number. In this paper, we first show that the decision problem associated with $\mbox{sd}_{\gamma_{[3R]}}(G)$ is NP-hard and then establish upper bounds on the triple Roman domination subdivision number for arbitrary graphs.

The aim of this paper is to obtain closed formulas for the perfect domination number, the Roman domination number and the perfect Roman domination number of lexicographic product graphs. We show that these formulas can be obtained relatively easily for the case of the first two parameters. The picture is quite different when it concerns the perfect Roman domination number. In this case, we obtain general bounds and then we give sufficient and/or necessary conditions for the bounds to be achieved.

We say that f is a strongly total Roman dominating function on G if the subgraph induced by V1∪V2 has no isolated vertex and N(v)∩V2≠∅ for every v∈V(G)\V2. The strongly total Roman domination number of G, denoted by γtRs(G), is defined as the minimum weight ω(f)=∑x∈V(G)f(x) among all strongly total Roman dominating functions f on G. This paper is devoted to the study of the strongly total Roman domination number of a graph and it is a contribution to the Special Issue “Theoretical Computer Science and Discrete Mathematics” of Symmetry. In particular, we show that the theory of strongly total Roman domination is an appropriate framework for investigating the total Roman domination number of lexicographic product graphs. We also obtain tight bounds on this parameter and provide closed formulas for some product graphs. Finally and as a consequence of the study, we prove that the problem of computing γtRs(G) is NP-hard.

Abstract:
A double Roman dominating function on a graph G=(V,E) is a function f:V→{0,1,2,3} with the properties that if f(u)=0, then vertex u is adjacent to at least one vertex assigned 3 or at least two vertices assigned 2, and if f(u)=1, then vertex u is adjacent to at least one vertex assigned 2 or 3. The weight of f equals w(f)=∑v∈Vf(v). The double Roman domination number γdR(G) of a graph G is the minimum weight of a double Roman dominating function of G. A graph is said to be double Roman if γdR(G)=3γ(G), where γ(G) is the domination number of G. We obtain the sharp lower bound of the double Roman domination number of generalized Petersen graphs P(3k,k), and we construct solutions providing the upper bounds, which gives exact values of the double Roman domination number for all generalized Petersen graphs P(3k,k). This implies that P(3k,k) is a double Roman graph if and only if either k≡0 (mod 3) or k∈{1,4}.

Given a graph G = ( V , E ) , a function f : V → { 0 , 1 , 2 , ⋯ } is said to be a total dominating function if ∑ u ∈ N ( v ) f ( u ) > 0 for every v ∈ V , where N ( v ) denotes the open neighbourhood of v. Let V i = { x ∈ V : f ( x ) = i } . We say that a function f : V → { 0 , 1 , 2 } is a total weak Roman dominating function if f is a total dominating function and for every vertex v ∈ V 0 there exists u ∈ N ( v ) ∩ ( V 1 ∪ V 2 ) such that the function f ′ , defined by f ′ ( v ) = 1 , f ′ ( u ) = f ( u ) - 1 and f ′ ( x ) = f ( x ) whenever x ∈ V ∖ { u , v } , is a total dominating function as well. The weight of a function f is defined to be w ( f ) = ∑ v ∈ V f ( v ) . In this article, we introduce the study of the total weak Roman domination number of a graph G, denoted by γ t r ( G ) , which is defined to be the minimum weight among all total weak Roman dominating functions on G. We show the close relationship that exists between this novel parameter and other domination parameters of a graph. Furthermore, we obtain general bounds on γ t r ( G ) and, for some particular families of graphs, we obtain closed formulae. Finally, we show that the problem of computing the total weak Roman domination number of a graph is NP-hard.

Abstract:
A vertex-edge Roman dominating function (or just ve-RDF) of a graph G = (V, E) is a function f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2} such that for each edge e = uv either max{f (u), f (v)} ≠ 0 or there exists a vertex w such that either wu ∈ E or wv ∈ E and f (w) = 2. The weight of a ve-RDF is the sum of its function values over all vertices. The vertex-edge Roman domination number of a graph G, denoted by γveR(G), is the minimum weight of a ve-RDF G. We characterize trees with vertexedge roman domination number equal to twice domination number minus one.

The minimum weight ω(f)=∑v∈V(G)f(v) among all outer-independent Roman dominating functions f on G is the outer-independent Roman domination number of G. This paper is devoted to the study of the outer-independent Roman domination number of a graph, and it is a contribution to the special issue “Theoretical Computer Science and Discrete Mathematics” of Symmetry.

Let G be a graph with no isolated vertex and f:V(G)→{0,1,2} a function. If f satisfies that every vertex in the set {v∈V(G):f(v)=0} is adjacent to at least one vertex in the set {v∈V(G):f(v)=2}, and if the subgraph induced by the set {v∈V(G):f(v)≥1} has no isolated vertex, then we say that f is a total Roman dominating function on G. The minimum weight ω(f)=∑v∈V(G)f(v) among all total Roman dominating functions f on G is the total Roman domination number of G. In this article we study this parameter for the rooted product graphs. Specifically, we obtain closed formulas and tight bounds for the total Roman domination number of rooted product graphs in terms of domination invariants of the factor graphs involved in this product.

A Roman dominating function (RD-function) on a graph G = (V, E) is a function f : V → {0, 1, 2} satisfying the condition that every vertex u for which f(u) = 0 is adjacent to at least one vertex v for which f(v) = 2. An Roman dominating function f in a graph G is perfect Roman dominating function (PRD-function) if every vertex u with f(u) = 0 is adjacent to exactly one vertex v for which f(v) = 2. The (perfect) Roman domination number γR(G) (γpR(G)) is the minimum weight of an (perfect) Roman dominating function on G. We say that γpR(G) strongly equals γR(G), denoted by γpR(G) ≡ γR(G), if every RD-function on G of minimum weight is a PRD-function. In this paper we show that for a given graph G, it is NP-hard to decide whether γpR(G) = γR(G) and also we provide a constructive characterization of trees T with γpR(T) ≡ γR(T).

Abstract:
Given a graph G without isolated vertices, a total Roman dominating function for G is a function f:V(G)→{0,1,2} such that every vertex u with f(u)=0 is adjacent to a vertex v with f(v)=2, and the set of vertices with positive labels induces a graph of minimum degree at least one. The total Roman domination number γtR(G) of G is the smallest possible value of ∑v∈V(G)f(v) among all total Roman dominating functions f. The total Roman domination number of the direct product G×H of the graphs G and H is studied in this work. Specifically, several relationships, in the shape of upper and lower bounds, between γtR(G×H) and some classical domination parameters for the factors are given. Characterizations of the direct product graphs G×H achieving small values (≤7) for γtR(G×H) are presented, and exact values for γtR(G×H) are deduced, while considering various specific direct product classes.

A perfect Roman dominating function on a graph G is a function f : V (G) ? {0,1,2} satisfying the condition that every vertex u with f(u) = 0 is adjacent to exactly one vertex v for which f(v) = 2. The weight of a perfect Roman dominating function f is the sum of the weights of the vertices. The perfect Roman domination number of G, denoted ?pR(G), is the minimum weight of a perfect Roman dominating function in G. We show that if G is a cubic graph on n vertices, then ?pR(G) ? 3/4n, and this bound is best possible. Further, we show that if G is a k-regular graph on n vertices with k at least 4, then ?pR(G) ?

This paper is devoted to the study of the quadruple Roman domination in trees, and it is a contribution to the Special Issue “Theoretical computer science and discrete mathematics” of Symmetry. For any positive integer k, a [k]-Roman dominating function ([k]-RDF) of a simple graph G is a function from the vertex set V of G to the set {0,1,2,…,k+1} if for any vertex u∈V with f(u)<k, ∑x∈N(u)∪{u}f(x)≥|{x∈N(u):f(x)≥1}|+k, where N(u) is the open neighborhood of u. The weight of a [k]-RDF is the value Σv∈Vf(v). The minimum weight of a [k]-RDF is called the [k]-Roman domination number γ[kR](G) of G. In this paper, we establish sharp upper and lower bounds on γ[4R](T) for nontrivial trees T and characterize extremal trees.

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite and simple graph of order $n$ and maximum degree $\Delta$.

The minimum of the values $\sum_{v\in V} f(v)$, taken over all signed strong Roman dominating functions $f$ of $G$, is called the signed strong Roman domination number of $G$ and is denoted by $\gamma_{ssR}(G)$.

Abstract:
Domination theory is a well-established topic in graph theory, as well as one of the most active research areas. Interest in this area is partly explained by its diversity of applications to real-world problems, such as facility location problems, computer and social networks, monitoring communication, coding theory, and algorithm design, among others. In the last two decades, the functions defined on graphs have attracted the attention of several researchers. The Roman-dominating functions and their variants are one of the main attractions. This paper is a contribution to the Roman domination theory in graphs. In particular, we provide some interesting properties and relationships between one of its variants: the quasi-total Roman domination in graphs.

A dominating set in a graph G is a set of vertices S ⊆ V ( G ) such that any vertex of V − S is adjacent to at least one vertex of S . A dominating set S of G is said to be a perfect dominating set if each vertex in V − S is adjacent to exactly one vertex in S.

The weight of a PRDF is the sum of its function values over all vertices, and the minimum weight of a PRDF of G is the perfect Roman domination number γ R p ( G ) .
