Let D=(V(D),A(D)) be a finite, simple digraph and k positive integer. A function f:V(D)→{0,1,2,…,k+1} is called [k]-Roman dominating (for short, [k]-RDF) if f(AN−[v])≥|AN−(v)|+k for any vertex v∈V(D), where AN−(v)={u∈N−(v):f(u)≥1} AN−[v]=AN−(v)∪{v}. The weight of [k]-RDF f ω(f)=∑v∈V(D)f(v). minimum on D the domination number, denoted by γ[kR](D). For k=2 k=3, we call them double Roman number tr...

This paper is devoted to the study of quadruple Roman domination in trees, and it a contribution Special Issue “Theoretical computer science discrete mathematics” Symmetry. For any positive integer k, [k]-Roman dominating function ([k]-RDF) simple graph G from vertex set V {0,1,2,…,k+1} if for u?V with f(u)<k, ?x?N(u)?{u}f(x)?|{x?N(u):f(x)?1}|+k, where N(u) open neighborhood u. The weight [k...

A Roman dominating 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 minimum of f (V (G)) = ∑ v∈V f (v) over all such functions is called the Roman domination number γR(G). A 2-rainbow dominating function of a graphG is a function g that assigns to each vertex a set of colors chosen from the set {1, 2}, for each vertex v ∈ V (G) such ...

Let G = (V,E) be a graph and let f be a function f : E → {0, 1, 2}. An edge x with f(x) = 0 is said to be undefended with respect to f if it is not incident to an edge with positive weight. The function f is a weak edge Roman dominating function (WERDF) if each edge x with f(x) = 0 is incident to an edge y with f(y) > 0 such that the function f ′ : E → {0, 1, 2}, defined by f ′(x) = 1, f ′(y) =...
