Abstract
For k ≥ 1 an integer, a set S of vertices in a graph G with minimum degree at least k is a k-tuple total dominating set of G if every vertex of G is adjacent to at least k vertices in S. The minimum cardinality of a k-tuple total dominating set ofGis the k-tuple total domination number of G. When k = 1, the k-tuple total domination number is the well-studied total domination number. In this paper, we establish upper and lower bounds on the k-tuple total domination number of the cross product graph G×H for any two graphs G and H with minimum degree at least k. In particular, we determine the exact value of the k-tuple total domination number of the cross product of two complete graphs.
