A Roman dominating function on a graph G = (V,E) is a function f : V → {0, 1, 2} such that every vertex v ∈ V with f(v) = 0 has at least one neighbor u ∈ V with f(u) = 2. The weight of a Roman dominating function is the value f(V (G)) = ∑ u∈V (G) f(u). The minimum weight of a Roman dominating function on a graph G is called the Roman domination number, denoted by γR(G). The Roman bondage number...

‎Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph‎. ‎A subset $Ssubset V$ is a hop dominating set‎‎if every vertex outside $S$ is at distance two from a vertex of‎‎$S$‎. ‎A hop dominating set $S$ which induces a connected subgraph‎ ‎is called a connected hop dominating set of $G$‎. ‎The‎‎connected hop domination number of $G$‎, ‎$ gamma_{ch}(G)$,‎‎‎ ‎is the minimum cardinality of a connected hop‎‎dominating set of $G$...

We provide two algorithms counting the number of minimum Roman dominating functions of a graph on n vertices in (1.5673) n time and polynomial space. We also show that the time complexity can be reduced to (1.5014) n if exponential space is used. Our result is obtained by transforming the Roman domination problem into other combinatorial problems on graphs for which exact algorithms already exist.
