Every official source I've seen refers to it as "Darth Vader's TIE Fighter."
Here's a link to it on the official Star Wars website:
http://www.starwars.com/vehicles/vaders_tie_fighter/
Here's a direct quote (in case you don't wanna click the link):
"Against the Rebel X-wing and Y-wing fighters in the Death Star trench, Darth
Vader's personal ship proves to be a devastating opponent, and Vader cuts
down one pilot after another with the X1's high technology"
So, it would certainly seem to me that the ship in question does in fact
belong to Darth Vader.
