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...

Let G=(V(G),E(G)) be a graph.A set of vertices S in a graph G is called to be a Smarandachely dominating k-set, if each vertex of G is dominated by at least k vertices of S. Particularly, if k = 1, such a set is called a dominating set of G. The Smarandachely domination k -number γk(G) of G is the minimum cardinality of a Smarandachely dominating k -set of G. S is called weak domination set if ...

Let G be a graph with the vertex set V (G) and edge set E(G). A function f : E(G) → {−1,+1} is said to be a signed star dominating function ofG if ∑ e∈EG(v) f(e) ≥ 1, for every v ∈ V (G), where EG(v) = {uv ∈ E(G) |u ∈ V (G)}. The minimum of the values of ∑ e∈E(G) f(e), taken over all signed star dominating functions f on G is called the signed star domination number of G and is denoted by γss(G...
