摘要

For a graph , a Roman dominating function has the property that every vertex with has a neighbor with . The weight of a Roman dominating function is the sum , and the minimum weight of a Roman dominating function on is the Roman domination number of . In this paper, we define the Roman independence number, the upper Roman domination number and the upper and lower Roman irredundance numbers, and then develop a Roman domination chain parallel to the well-known domination chain. We also develop sharpness, strictness and bounds for the Roman domination chain inequalities.
