Let G = (V, E) be a simple graph with vertex set V and edge set E. A mixed Roman dominating functionThe mixed Roman domination number of G is the minimum weight of a mixed Roman dominating function of G. In this paper, we initiate the study of the mixed Roman domination number and we present bounds for this parameter. We characterize the graphs attaining an upper bound and the graphs having small mixed Roman domination numbers.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
