\begin{document}$$\gamma _{R}(G)$$\end{document}, is the minimum weight of a Roman dominating function on G. A connected (respectively, total) Roman dominating function is an RDF f such that the vertices with non-zero labels under f induce a connected graph (respectively, a subgraph with no isolated vertex).
