Assume we have a set of k colors and we assign an arbitrary subset of these colors to each vertex of a graph G. If we require that each vertex to which an empty set is assigned has in its neighborhood all k colors, then this assignment is called a k-rainbow dominating function of G. The corresponding invariant γrk(G), which is the minimum sum of numbers of assigned colors over all vertices of G...

A double Roman dominating function on a graph $G$ with vertex set $V(G)$ is defined in cite{bhh} as a function$f:V(G)rightarrow{0,1,2,3}$ having the property that if $f(v)=0$, then the vertex $v$ must have at least twoneighbors assigned 2 under $f$ or one neighbor $w$ with $f(w)=3$, and if $f(v)=1$, then the vertex $v$ must haveat least one neighbor $u$ with $f(u)ge 2$. The weight of a double R...

A fall coloring of a graph G is a proper coloring of the vertex set of G such that every vertex of G is a color dominating vertex in G (that is, it has at least one neighbor in each of the other color classes). The fall coloring number χf (G) of G is the minimum size of a fall color partition of G (when it exists). Trivially, for any graph G, χ(G) ≤ χf (G). In this paper, we show the existence ...

A Roman dominating function (RDF) on a digraph $D$ is a function $f: V(D)rightarrow {0,1,2}$ satisfying the condition that every vertex $v$ with $f(v)=0$ has an in-neighbor $u$ with $f(u)=2$. The weight of an RDF $f$ is the value $sum_{vin V(D)}f(v)$. The Roman domination number of a digraph $D$ is the minimum weight of an RDF on $D$. A set ${f_1,f_2,dots,f_d}$ of Roman dominating functions on ...

‎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 $G$...
