Strong equality of Roman and perfect Roman domination in trees

A Roman dominating function (RD-function) on a graph $G = (V, E)$ is a function $f: V \longrightarrow \{0, 1, 2\}$ 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 $\gamma_R(G)$ ($\gamma_{R}^{p}(G)$) is the minimum weight of an (perfect) Roman dominating function on $G$. We say that $\gamma_{R}^{p}(G)$ strongly equals $\gamma_R(G)$, denoted by $\gamma_{R}^{p}(G)\equiv \gamma_R(G)$, 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 $\gamma_{R}^{p}(G)= \gamma_R(G)$ and also we provide a constructive characterization of trees $T$ with $\gamma_{R}^{p}(T)\equiv \gamma_R(T)$.
