A Roman dominating function (RDF) on a graphG = (V,E) is 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. The weight of an RDF is the value f(V (G)) = ∑ u∈V (G) f(u). An RDF f in a graph G is independent if no two vertices assigned positive values are adjacent. The Roman domination number γR(G)...

Let γ(G) denote the domination number of a graph G. A Roman domination function of a graph G is a function f : V → {0, 1, 2} such that every vertex with 0 has a neighbor with 2. The Roman domination number γR(G) is the minimum of f(V (G)) = Σv∈V f(v) over all such functions. Let G H denote the Cartesian product of graphs G and H. We prove that γ(G)γ(H) ≤ γR(G H) for all simple graphs G and H, w...

Let G = (V,E) be a graph and f be a function f : V → {0, 1, 2}. A vertex u with f(u) = 0 is said to be undefended with respect to f , if it is not adjacent to a vertex with positive weight. The function f is a weak Roman dominating function (WRDF) if each vertex u with f(u) = 0 is adjacent to a vertex v with f(v) > 0 such that the function f ′ : V → {0, 1, 2} defined by f ′ (u) = 1, f ′ (v) = f...

A Roman dominating function of a graph G is a labeling f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2} such that every vertex with label 0 has a neighbor with label 2. The Roman domination number γR(G) of G is the minimum of ∑ v∈V (G) f(v) over such functions. Let G be a connected n-vertex graph. We prove that γR(G) ≤ 4n/5, and we characterize the graphs achieving equality. We obtain sharp upper and lower bounds for γR(...
