We obtain new results on independent 2- and 3-rainbow domination numbers of generalized Petersen graphs P ( n , k ) for certain values of n , k ∈ N . By suitably adjusting and applying a well established technique of tropical algebra (path algebra) we obtain exact 2-independent rainbow domination numbers of generalized Petersen graphs P ( n , 2 ) and P ( n , 3 ) thus confirming a conjecture proposed by Shao et al. In addition, we compute exact 3-independent rainbow domination numbers of generalized Petersen graphs P ( n , 2 ) . The method used here is developed for rainbow domination and for Petersen graphs. However, with some natural modifications, the method used can be applied to other domination type invariants, and to many other classes of graphs including grids and tori.

We obtain new results on 3-rainbow domination numbers of generalized Petersen graphs P(6k,k). In some cases, for some infinite families, exact values are established; in all other cases, the lower and upper bounds with small gaps are given. We also define singleton rainbow domination, where the sets assigned have a cardinality of, at most, one, and provide analogous results for this special case of rainbow domination.

We obtain new results on 2-rainbow domination number of generalized Petersen graphs P(5k,k). In some cases (for some infinite families), exact values are established, and in all other cases lower and upper bounds are given. In particular, it is shown that, for k>3, γr2(P(5k,k))=4k for k≡2,8mod10, γr2(P(5k,k))=4k+1 for k≡5,9mod10, 4k+1≤γr2(P(5k,k))≤4k+2 for k≡1,6,7mod10, and 4k+1≤γr2(P(5k,k))≤4k+3 for k≡0,3,4mod10.

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}.
