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 for every vertex with label 0, there is a vertex with label 2 at distance at most k from each other. The weight of a k-distance Roman dominating function f is the value ω(f) = ∑ v∈V f(v). The k-distance Roman domination number ...

A subset X of edges of a graph G is called an edge dominating set of G if every edge not in X is adjacent to some edge in X . The edge domination number γ′(G) of G is the minimum cardinality taken over all edge dominating sets of G. An edge Roman dominating function of a graph G is a function f : E(G) → {0, 1, 2} such that every edge e with f(e) = 0 is adjacent to some edge e′ with f(e′) = 2. T...

In his article published in 1999, Ian Stewart discussed a strategy of Emperor Constantine for defending the Roman Empire. Motivated by this article, Cockayne et al.(2004) introduced the notion of Roman domination in graphs. Let G = (V,E) be a graph. A Roman dominating function of G is a 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 we...

A signed Roman dominating function (SRDF) on a graph G is a function f : V (G) → {−1, 1, 2} such that u∈N [v] f(u) ≥ 1 for every v ∈ V (G), and every vertex u ∈ V (G) for which f(u) = −1 is adjacent to at least one vertex w for which f(w) = 2. A set {f1, f2, . . . , fd} of distinct signed Roman dominating functions on G with the property that ∑d i=1 fi(v) ≤ 1 for each v ∈ V (G), is called a sig...

‎let $g=(v(g),e(g))$ be a graph‎, ‎$gamma_t(g)$. let $ooir(g)$ be the total domination and oo-irredundance number of $g$‎, ‎respectively‎. ‎a total dominating set $s$ of $g$ is called a $textit{total perfect code}$ if every vertex in $v(g)$ is adjacent to exactly one vertex of $s$‎. ‎in this paper‎, ‎we show that if $g$ has a total perfect code‎, ‎then $gamma_t(g)=ooir(g)$‎. ‎as a consequence, ...

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...

given a graph $g$, the total dominator coloring problem seeks aproper coloring of $g$ with the additional property that everyvertex in the graph is adjacent to all vertices of a color class. weseek to minimize the number of color classes. we initiate to studythis problem on several classes of graphs, as well as findinggeneral bounds and characterizations. we also compare the totaldominator chro...

A Roman dominating function (RDF) on a graph G = (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 f is the value f(V (G)) = ∑ u∈V (G) f(u). A function f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2} with the ordered partition (V0, V1, V2) of V (G), where Vi = {v ∈ V (G) | f(v) = i} for i = 0...
