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.

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph with vertex set $V$ and edge set $E$. A mixed Roman dominating function (MRDF) of $G$ is a function $f:V\cup E\rightarrow \{0,1,2\}$ satisfying the condition that every element $x\in V\cup E$ for which $f(x)=0$ is adjacent or incident to at least one element $% y\in V\cup E$ for which $f(y)=2$. The weight of a mixed Roman dominating function $f$ is $\omega (f)=\sum_{x\in V\cup E}f(x)$. The mixed Roman domination number $\gamma _{R}^{\ast }(G)$ of $G$ is the minimum weight of a mixed Roman dominating function of $G$. We first show that the problem of computing $\gamma _{R}^{\ast }(G)$ is NP-complete for bipartite graphs and then we present upper and lower bounds on the mixed Roman domination number, some of them are for the class of trees.

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.

Let [Formula: see text] be a graph and let [Formula: see text] be a function. A vertex [Formula: see text] is protected with respect to [Formula: see text], if [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] is adjacent to a vertex of positive weight. The function [Formula: see text] is a co-Roman dominating function, abbreviated CRDF if: (i) every vertex in [Formula: see text] is protected, and (ii) each [Formula: see text] with positive weight has a neighbor [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] such that the function [Formula: see text], defined by [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text], has no unprotected vertex. The weight of [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]. The co-Roman domination number of a graph [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is the minimum weight of a co-Roman dominating function on [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we present some new sharp bounds on [Formula: see text]. Some of our results improve the previous 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 [Formula: see text] be a graph with the vertex set [Formula: see text]. A function [Formula: see text] is called a Roman dominating function of [Formula: see text], if 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 Roman dominating function [Formula: see text] is equal to [Formula: see text]. The minimum weight of a Roman dominating function of [Formula: see text] is called the Roman domination number of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we initiate the study of a variant of Roman dominating functions. A function [Formula: see text] is called an isolate Roman dominating function of [Formula: see text], if [Formula: see text] is a Roman dominating function and there is a vertex [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] which is not adjacent to any vertex [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text]. The minimum weight of an isolate Roman dominating function of [Formula: see text] is called the isolate Roman domination number of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text]. We present some upper bound on the isolate Roman domination number of a graph [Formula: see text] in terms of its Roman domination number and its domination number. Moreover, we present some classes of graphs [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text]. Finally, we show that the decision problem associated with the isolate Roman dominating functions is NP-complete for bipartite graphs and chordal graphs.
