The $k$-token graph $T_k(G)$ is the graph whose vertices are the $k$-subsets of vertices of a graph $G$, with two vertices of $T_k(G)$ adjacent if their symmetric difference is an edge of $G$. We explore when $T_k(G)$ is a well-covered…

In a graph $G$, a vertex dominates itself and its neighbours. A set $D\subseteq V(G)$ is said to be a $k$-tuple dominating set of $G$ if $D$ dominates every vertex of $G$ at least $k$ times. The minimum cardinality among all $k$-tuple…

Let $G = (V, E)$ be a graph where $V$ and $E$ are the vertex and edge sets, respectively. For two disjoint subsets $A$ and $B$ of $V$, we say that $A$ \emph{dominates} $B$ if every vertex of $B$ is adjacent to at least one vertex of $A$. A…

A subset $D\subseteq V(G)$ is called a $k$-distance dominating set of $G$ if every vertex in $V(G)\setminus D$ is within distance $k$ from some vertex of $D$. The minimum cardinality among all $k$-distance dominating sets of $G$ is called…

A proper total $k$-colouring of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is an assignment $c : V \cup E\to \{1,2,\ldots,k\}$ of colours to the edges and the vertices of $G$ such that no two adjacent edges or vertices and no edge and its end-vertices are…
