Resumen:
Let G be a graph with no isolated vertex and f:V(G)->{0,1,2} a function. If f satisfies that every vertex in the set {v is an element of V(G):f(v)=0} is adjacent to at least one vertex in the set {v is an element of V(G):f(v)=2}, and if the subgraph induced by the set {v is an element of V(G):f(v)>= 1} has no isolated vertex, then we say that f is a total Roman dominating function on G. The minimum weight omega(f)= n-ary sumation v is an element of V(G)f(v) among all total Roman dominating functions f on G is the total Roman domination number of G. In this article we study this parameter for the rooted product graphs. Specifically, we obtain closed formulas and tight bounds for the total Roman domination number of rooted product graphs in terms of domination invariants of the factor graphs involved in this product.
