The Roman dominating function f is an outer-independent Roman dominating function on G if the set of vertices labeled with zero under f is an independent set. The outer-independent Roman domination number gamma(oiR) (G) is the minimum weight w(f ) = Sigma(v is an element of V), ((G)) f(v) of any outer-independent Roman dominating function f of G. A vertex cover of a graph G is a set of vertices that covers all the edges of G. The minimum cardinality of a vertex cover is denoted by alpha(G). A graph G is a vertex cover Roman graph if gamma(oiR) (G) = 2 alpha(G). A constructive characterization of the vertex cover Roman trees is given in this article.}, publisher = {UNIV ZIELONA GORA}, keywords = {Roman domination}, keywords = {outer-independent Roman domination}, keywords = {vertex cover}, keywords = {vertex independence}, keywords = {trees}, title = {A constructive characterization of vertex cover Roman trees}, doi = {10.7151/dmgt.2179}, author = {Cabrera Martínez, Abel and Kuziak, Dorota and González Yero, Ismael}, }
