For a given graph G=(V, E), a Roman 2-dominating function f : V (G) → 0, 1, 2 has the property that for every vertex u with f(u) = 0, either u is adjacent to a vertex assigned 2 under f, or is adjacent to at least two vertices assigned 1 under f. The Roman 2-domination number of G, γR2(G), is the minimum of Σu∈V (G) f(u) over all such functions. In this paper, we initiate the study of the problem of finding Roman 2-bondage number of G. The Roman 2-bondage number of G, bR2, is defined as the cardinality of a smallest edge set E′ ⊆ E for which γR2(G − E′) gt; γR2(G). We first demonstrate complexity status of the problem by proving that the problem is NP-Hard. Then, we derive useful parametric as well as fixed upper bounds on the Roman 2-bondage number of G. Specifically, it is known that the Roman bondage number of every planar graph does not exceed 15 (see [S. Akbari, M. Khatirinejad and S. Qajar, A note on the Roman bondage number of planar graphs, Graphs Combin. 29 (2013) 327–331]). We show that same bound will be preserved while computing the Roman 2-bondage number of such graphs. The paper is then concluded by computing exact value of the parameter for some classes of graphs.
