Let G = (V,E) be a graph and f be a function f:V → 0,1,2. A vertex u with f(u) = 0 is said to be undefended with respect to f, if it is not adjacent to a vertex with positive weight. The function f is a weak Roman dominating function (WRDF) if each vertex u with f(u) = 0 is adjacent to a vertex v with f(v) > 0 such that the function f': V → 0,1,2 defined by f'(u) = 1, f'(v) = f(v)-1 and f'(w) = f(w) if w ∈ V-u,v, has no undefended vertex. The weight of f is w(f) = ∑_v ∈ Vf(v). The weak Roman domination number, denoted by γ_r(G), is the minimum weight of a WRDF in G. In this paper, we characterize the class of trees and split graphs for which γ_r(G) = γ(G) and find γ_r-value for a caterpillar, a 2×n grid graph and a complete binary tree.
