The concept of Domination in graphs has application to the study of DNA structures. For investigating the chemical and physical properties, several topological indices used are Wiener index, Randic index, Zagreb index, Kier & Hall index that depends on vertex degree and distance sum, and have been used extensively for QSAR and QSPR studies. A Roman Dominating Function of G is function f: V→ {0, 1, 2} such that every vertex v for which f (v) = 0 has a neighbor u with f(u) = 2. The weight of a Roman dominating function f is w (f) =   . The Roman domination number of a graph G is denoted by (G) and is the minimum weight of all possible Roman dominating functions. In this paper, we find Roman domination number of some chemicals graphs such as saturated hydrocarbons and unsaturated hydrocarbons, hexagonal chain, pyrene, Hexabenzocoronene, H-Phenylenic nanotube and N-Napthelenic nanotube.

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.

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. In addition, we characterize double Roman domination edge super critical graphs and we will give several characterizations for double Roman domination vertex (edge) critical graphs.

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 [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.

Motivated by the article in Scientific American [7], Michael A Henning and Stephen T Hedetniemi explored the strategy of defending the Roman Empire. Cockayne defined Roman dominating function (RDF) on a Graph G = (V, E) to be a function f : V → {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. For a real valued function f : V → R the weight of f is w(f) = ∑v∈V f(v). The Roman domination number (RDN) denoted by γR(G) is the minimum weight among all RDF in G. If V – D contains a roman dominating function f1 : V → {0, 1, 2}. "D" is the set of vertices v for which f(v) > 0. Then f1 is called Inverse Roman Dominating function (IRDF) on a graph G w.r.t. f. The inverse roman domination number (IRDN) denoted by [Formula: see text] is the minimum weight among all IRDF in G. In this paper we find few results of IRDN.

Given a graph G = ( V , E ) , a function f : V → { 0 , 1 , 2 , ⋯ } is said to be a total dominating function if ∑ u ∈ N ( v ) f ( u ) > 0 for every v ∈ V , where N ( v ) denotes the open neighbourhood of v. Let V i = { x ∈ V : f ( x ) = i } . We say that a function f : V → { 0 , 1 , 2 } is a total weak Roman dominating function if f is a total dominating function and for every vertex v ∈ V 0 there exists u ∈ N ( v ) ∩ ( V 1 ∪ V 2 ) such that the function f ′ , defined by f ′ ( v ) = 1 , f ′ ( u ) = f ( u ) - 1 and f ′ ( x ) = f ( x ) whenever x ∈ V ∖ { u , v } , is a total dominating function as well. The weight of a function f is defined to be w ( f ) = ∑ v ∈ V f ( v ) . In this article, we introduce the study of the total weak Roman domination number of a graph G, denoted by γ t r ( G ) , which is defined to be the minimum weight among all total weak Roman dominating functions on G. We show the close relationship that exists between this novel parameter and other domination parameters of a graph. Furthermore, we obtain general bounds on γ t r ( G ) and, for some particular families of graphs, we obtain closed formulae. Finally, we show that the problem of computing the total weak Roman domination number of a graph is NP-hard.

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 total Roman dominating function (TRDF) on a graph [Formula: see text] is a function [Formula: see text] satisfying the conditions (i) every vertex [Formula: see text] for which [Formula: see text] is adjacent at least one vertex [Formula: see text] for which [Formula: see text] and (ii) the subgraph of [Formula: see text] induced by the set of all vertices of positive weight has no isolated vertex. The weight of a TRDF is the sum of its function values over all vertices. A total Roman dominating function [Formula: see text] is called a global total Roman dominating function (GTRDF) if [Formula: see text] is also a TRDF of the complement [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text]. The global total Roman domination number of [Formula: see text] is the minimum weight of a GTRDF on [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we initiate the study of global total Roman domination number and investigate its basic properties. In particular, we relate the global total Roman domination and the total Roman domination and the global Roman domination number.

A double Roman dominating function on a graph G is a function f:VG⟶0,1,2,3 satisfying the conditions that every vertex u for which fu=0 is adjacent to at least one vertex v for which fv=3 or two vertices v1 and v2 for which fv1=fv2=2 and every vertex u for which fu=1 is adjacent to at least one vertex v for which fv≥2. The weight of a double Roman dominating function f is the value fV=∑u∈Vfu. The minimum weight of a double Roman dominating function on a graph G is called the double Roman domination numberγdRG of G. A graph with γdRG=3γG is called a double Roman graph. In this paper, we study properties of double Roman domination in graphs. Moreover, we find a class of double Roman graphs and give characterizations of trees with γdRT=γRT+k for k=1,2.

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}.
