Let k be a positive integer, and let G be a simple graph with vertex set V (G). A k-distance Roman dominating function on G is a labeling f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2} such that every vertex with label 0 has a vertex with label 2 within distance k from each other. A set {f1, f2, . . . , fd} of k-distance Roman dominating functions on G with the property that ∑d i=1 fi(v) ≤ 2 for each v ∈ V (G), is call...

Let Y be a subset of real numbers. A Y dominating function of a graph G = (V, E) is a function f : V → Y such that u∈NG[v] f(u) ≥ 1 for all vertices v ∈ V , where NG[v] = {v} ∪ {u|(u, v) ∈ E}. Let f(S) = u∈S f(u) for any subset S of V and let f(V ) be the weight of f . The Y -domination problem is to find a Y -dominating function of minimum weight for a graph. In this paper, we study the variat...

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 $2$. The weight of $f$ is the value $f(V) = Sigma_{vin V} f(v)$The Roman domination number, $gamma_R(G)$, of $G$ is theminimum weight of an RDF on $G$.An RDF of minimum weight is called a $gamma_R$-function.A graph G is said to be $g...

A graph G with no isolated vertex is total domination vertex critical if for any vertex v of G that is not adjacent to a vertex of degree one, the total domination number of G− v is less than the total domination number of G. We call these graphs total domination critical or just γt-critical. If such a graph G has total domination number k, we call it k-γt-critical. We study an open problem of ...
