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 minimum cardinality of a perfect dominating set is the perfect domination number γ p ( G ) . A function f : V ( G ) → { 0 , 1 , 2 } is a perfect Roman dominating function (PRDF) on G if every vertex u ∈ V for which f ( u ) = 0 is adjacent to exactly one vertex v for which f ( v ) = 2 . 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 ) . In this paper, we prove that for any nontrivial tree T, γ R p ( T ) ≥ γ p ( T ) + 1 and we characterize all trees attaining this bound.

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 weight of an TSTRDF [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]. The twin signed total Roman domination number [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is the minimum weight of an TSTRDF on [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we initiate the study of twin signed total Roman domination in digraphs and we present some sharp bounds on [Formula: see text]. In addition, we determine the twin signed Roman domination number of some classes of digraphs.

Let $D=(V,A)$ be a finite and simple digraph. A  Roman dominating function on $D$ is a labeling $f:V (D)\rightarrow \{0, 1, 2\}$ such that every vertex with label 0 has an in-neighbor with label 2. The weight of an RDF $f$ is the value $\omega(f)=\sum_{v\in V}f (v)$. The minimum weight of a Roman dominating function on a digraph $D$ is called the Roman domination number, denoted by $\gamma_{R}(D)$. The Roman bondage number $b_{R}(D)$ of a digraph $D$ with maximum out-degree at least two is the minimum cardinality of all sets $A'\subseteq A$ for which $\gamma_{R}(D-A')>\gamma_R(D)$. In this paper, we initiate the study of the Roman bondage number of a digraph. We determine the Roman bondage number in several classes of digraphs and give some sharp bounds.

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.

A double Roman dominating function on a graph G is a function f : V(G) → {0, 1, 2, 3} 2 with the condition that every vertex u for which f(u) = 0 is adjacent to at least one vertex v for 3 which f(v) = 3 or two vertices v1 and v2 for which f(v1) = f(v2) = 2, and every vertex u for which 4 f(u) = 1 is adjacent to at least one vertex v for which f(v) ≥ 2. The weight of a double Roman dominating function f is the value w(f) = ∑u∈V(G) 5 f(u). The minimum weight over all double 6 Roman dominating functions on a graph G is called the double Roman domination number γdR(G) 7 of G. In this paper we determine the exact value of the double Roman domination number of the 8 generalized Petersen graphs P(n, 2) by using a discharging approach.

Let $D$ be a finite simple digraph with vertex set $V(D)$ and arc set $A(D)$. A twin signed Roman dominating function (TSRDF) on the digraph $D$ is a function $f:V(D)\rightarrow\{-1,1,2\}$ satisfying the conditions that (i) $\sum_{x\in N^-[v]}f(x)\ge 1$ and $\sum_{x\in N^+[v]}f(x)\ge 1$ for each $v\in V(D)$, where $N^-[v]$ (resp. $N^+[v]$) consists of $v$ and all in-neighbors (resp. out-neighbors) of $v$, and (ii) every vertex $u$ for which $f(u)=-1$ has an in-neighbor $v$ and an out-neighbor $w$ for which $f(v)=f(w)=2$. The weight of an TSRDF $f$ is $\omega(f)=\sum_{v\in V(D)}f(v)$. The twin signed Roman domination number $\gamma_{sR}^*(D)$ of $D$ is the minimum weight of an TSRDF on $D$. In this paper, we initiate the study of twin signed Roman domination in digraphs and we present some sharp bounds on $\gamma_{sR}^*(D)$. In addition, we determine the twin signed Roman domination number of some classes of digraphs.

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.

A perfect Roman dominating function on a graph G = (V (G), E(G)) is a function f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2} for which each u ∈ V (G) with f(u) = 0 is adjacent to exactly one vertex v ∈ V (G) with f(v) = 2. The weight of a perfect Roman dominating function f is the value ωG(f) = Pv∈V (G) f(v). The perfect Roman domination number of G is the minimum weight of a perfect Roman dominating function on G. In this paper, we study the perfect Roman domination numbers of graphs under some binary operation

A double Roman dominating function (DRDF) f on a given graph G is a mapping from V ( G ) to { 0 , 1 , 2 , 3 } in such a way that a vertex u for which f ( u ) = 0 has at least a neighbor labeled 3 or two neighbors both labeled 2 and a vertex u for which f ( u ) = 1 has at least a neighbor labeled 2 or 3. The weight of a DRDF f is the value w ( f ) = ∑ u ∈ V ( G ) f ( u ) . The minimum weight of a DRDF on a graph G is called the double Roman domination number γ d R ( G ) of G. In this paper, we determine the exact value of the double Roman domination number of the generalized Petersen graphs P ( n , 2 ) by using a discharging approach.

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}.

Let [Formula: see text] be a graph and [Formula: see text] be a Roman dominating function defined on [Formula: see text]. Let [Formula: see text] be some ordering of the vertices of [Formula: see text]. For any [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] is defined by [Formula: see text]. If for all [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], we have [Formula: see text], that is [Formula: see text], for some [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text] is called a resolving Roman dominating function (RDF) on [Formula: see text]. The weight of a resolving RDF [Formula: see text] on [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]. The minimum weight of a resolving RDF on [Formula: see text] is called the resolving Roman domination number of [Formula: see text] and is denoted by [Formula: see text]. A resolving RDF on [Formula: see text] with weight [Formula: see text] is called a [Formula: see text]-function on [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we find the resolving Roman domination number of certain well-known classes of graphs. We also categorize the class of graphs whose resolving Roman domination number equals their order.
