Twin Roman domination number of a digraph

Abstract

Let $D$ be a finite and simple digraph with vertex set $V(D)$. A {\em twin Roman dominating function} (TRDF) on $D$ is a labeling $f:V (D)\rightarrow \{0, 1, 2\}$ such that every vertex with label 0 has a in-neighbor and out-neighbor with label 2. The {\em weight} of a TRDF $f$ is the value $\omega(f)=\sum_{v\in V(D)}f (v)$. The {\em twin Roman domination number} of a digraph $D$, denoted by $\gamma_R^*(D)$, equals the minimum weight of a TRDF on $D$. In this paper we initiate the study of the twin Roman domination number in digraphs. In particular, we present sharp bounds for $\gamma_{R}^*(D)$ and determine the exact value of twin Roman domination number for some classes of digraphs.
