Let G be a finite and simple graph with vertex set V (G), and let f : V (G) → {−1, 1} be a two-valued function. If ∑ x∈N[v] f (x) ≥ 1 for each v ∈ V (G), where N[v] is the closed neighborhood of v, then f is a signed dominating function on G. A set {f1, f2, . . . , fd} of signed dominating functions on Gwith the property that ∑d i=1 fi(x) ≤ 1 for each x ∈ V (G), is called a signed dominating fa...

The open neighborhood NG(e) of an edge e in a graph G is the set consisting of all edges having a common end-vertex with e and its closed neighborhood is NG[e] = NG(e) ∪ {e}. Let f be a function on E(G), the edge set of G, into the set {−1, 1}. If ∑x∈NG[e] f(x) ≥ 1 for at least a half of the edges e ∈ E(G), then f is called a signed edge majority dominating function of G. The minimum of the val...

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)...

The complementary prism GG of a graph G is formed from the disjoint union of G and its complement G by adding the edges of a perfect matching between the corresponding vertices of G and G. A Roman dominating function on a graph G = (V,E) is a labeling f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2} such that every vertex with label 0 is adjacent to a vertex with label 2. The Roman domination number γR(G) ofG is the mini...

Let G be a graph. A function f : V (G) → {−1, 1} is a signed kindependence function if the sum of its function values over any closed neighborhood is at most k − 1, where k ≥ 2. The signed k-independence number of G is the maximum weight of a signed k-independence function of G. Similarly, the signed total k-independence number of G is the maximum weight of a signed total k-independence functio...

LetD = (V,A) be a finite and simple digraph. A Roman dominating function (RDF) on a digraph D is a labeling f : V (D) → {0, 1, 2} such that every vertex with label 0 has a in-neighbor with label 2. The weight of an RDF f is the value ω(f) = ∑ v∈V f(v). The Roman domination number of a digraph D, denoted by γR(D), equals the minimum weight of an RDF on D. In this paper we present some sharp boun...

A Roman dominating function (RDF) on a graph $G = (V, E)$ is a labeling $f : V rightarrow {0, 1, 2}$ suchthat every vertex with label $0$ has a neighbor with label $2$.

For a positive integer k, a total {k}-dominating function of a graph G without isolated vertices is a function f from the vertex set V (G) to the set {0, 1, 2, . . . , k} such that for any vertex v ∈ V (G), the condition ∑ u∈N(v) f(u) ≥ k is fulfilled, where N(v) is the open neighborhood of v.
