A double Roman domination function (DRDF) on a graph \(G=(V,E)\) is a mapping \(f :V\rightarrow \{0,1,2,3\}\) satisfying the conditions: (i) each vertex with 0 assigned is adjacent to a vertex with 3 assigned or at least two vertices with 2 assigned and (ii) each vertex with 1 assigned is adjacent to at least one vertex with 2 or 3 assigned. The weight of a DRDF f is defined as the sum \(\sum _{v\in V}f(v)\) . The minimum weight of a DRDF on a graph G is called the double Roman domination number (DRDN) of G. This study establishes the values on DRDN for several graph classes. The exact values of DRDN are proved for Kneser graphs \(K_{n,k},n\ge k(k+2)\) , Johnson graphs \(J_{n,2}\) , for a few classes of convex polytopes, and the flower snarks. Moreover, tight lower and upper bounds on SRDN are proved for some convex polytopes. For the generalized Petersen graphs \(P_{n,3}, n \not \equiv 0\,(\mathrm {mod\ 4})\) , we make a further improvement on the best known upper bound from the literature.
