Abstract
In this paper, we give a series of counterexamples to negate a conjecture and answer an open question on the k-power domination of regular graphs [see Dorbec et al. (SIAM J Discrete Math 27:1559–1574, 2013)]. Furthermore, we focus on the study of k-power domination of claw-free graphs. We show that for l∈ { 2 , 3 } and k≥ l, the k-power domination number of a connected claw-free (k+ l+ 1) -regular graph on n vertices is at most nk+l+2, and this bound is tight.
