An Italian dominating function (IDF) of a graph G is a function [Formula: see text] satisfying the condition that for every [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] The weight of an IDF on [Formula: see text] is the sum [Formula: see text] and Italian domination number, [Formula: see text] is the minimum weight of an IDF. In this paper, we prove that [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is the Mycielskian graph of [Formula: see text].

A Roman dominating function (RDF) on a graph [Formula: see text] is a function [Formula: see text] satisfying the condition that every vertex [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] is adjacent to at least one vertex [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] for which [Formula: see text]. The weight of a RDF is the sum [Formula: see text], and the minimum weight of a RDF [Formula: see text] is the Roman domination number [Formula: see text]. A subset [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is a [Formula: see text]-independent set of [Formula: see text] if every vertex of [Formula: see text] has at most one neighbor in [Formula: see text] The maximum cardinality of a [Formula: see text]-independent set of [Formula: see text] is the [Formula: see text]-independence number [Formula: see text] Both parameters are incomparable in general, however, we show that if [Formula: see text] is a tree, then [Formula: see text]. Moreover, all extremal trees attaining equality are characterized.

A double Roman dominating function (DRDF) on a graph [Formula: see text] is a function [Formula: see text] such that (i) every vertex [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] is adjacent to at least two vertices assigned a [Formula: see text] or to at least one vertex assigned a [Formula: see text] and (ii) every vertex [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] is adjacent to at least one vertex [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] The weight of a DRDF is the sum of its function values over all vertices. The double Roman domination number [Formula: see text] equals the minimum weight of a DRDF on [Formula: see text] The concept of criticality with respect to various operations on graphs has been studied for several domination parameters. In this paper, we study the concept of criticality for double Roman domination in graphs.

Let [Formula: see text] be a finite simple digraph with vertex set [Formula: see text] and arc set [Formula: see text]. A twin signed total Roman dominating function (TSTRDF) on the digraph [Formula: see text] is a function [Formula: see text] satisfying the conditions that (i) [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for each [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] (respectively [Formula: see text]) consists of all in-neighbors (respectively out-neighbors) of [Formula: see text], and (ii) every vertex [Formula: see text] for which [Formula: see text] has an in-neighbor [Formula: see text] and an out-neighbor [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text].

The Roman domination number, [Formula: see text], of [Formula: see text] is the minimum weight of a RDF on [Formula: see text]. An RDF [Formula: see text] is called an independent Roman dominating function (IRDF) if the set [Formula: see text] is an independent set. The independent Roman domination number, [Formula: see text], is the minimum weight of an IRDF on [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we study trees with independent Roman domination number twice their independent domination number, answering an open question.

The [Formula: see text]-rainbow domination number of a graph [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is the minimum weight of a 2RDF of G. The [Formula: see text]-rainbow domination subdivision number [Formula: see text] is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided (each edge in [Formula: see text] can be subdivided at most once) in order to increase the 2-rainbow domination number. It is conjectured that for any connected graph [Formula: see text] of order [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we first prove this conjecture for some classes of graphs and then we prove that for any connected graph [Formula: see text] of order [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text].

Let [Formula: see text] be a finite simple digraph with vertex set [Formula: see text]. A signed total Roman dominating function (STRDF) on a digraph [Formula: see text] is a function [Formula: see text] such that (i) [Formula: see text] for every [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] consists of all inner neighbors of [Formula: see text], and (ii) every vertex [Formula: see text] for which [Formula: see text] has an inner neighbor [Formula: see text] for which [Formula: see text]. The weight of an STRDF [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]. The signed total Roman domination number [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is the minimum weight of an STRDF on [Formula: see text]. A set [Formula: see text] of distinct STRDFs on [Formula: see text] with the property that [Formula: see text] for each [Formula: see text] is called a signed total Roman dominating family (STRD family) (of functions) on [Formula: see text]. The maximum number of functions in an STRD family on [Formula: see text] is the signed total Roman domatic number of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we initiate the study of signed total Roman domatic number in digraphs and we present some sharp bounds for [Formula: see text]. In addition, we determine the signed total Roman domatic number of some classes of digraphs.

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.

A signed total Roman [Formula: see text]-dominating function (STR[Formula: see text]DF) on a graph [Formula: see text] is a function [Formula: see text] such that (i) every vertex [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] is adjacent to at least one vertex [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] and (ii) [Formula: see text] holds for any vertex [Formula: see text]. The weight of an STR[Formula: see text]DF [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text] and the minimum weight of an STR[Formula: see text]DF is the signed total Roman [Formula: see text]-domination number [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text].
