We introduce a new subclass of chordal graphs that generalizes split graphs, which we call well-partitioned chordal graphs. Split graphs are graphs that admit a partition of the vertex set into cliques that can be arranged in a star structure, the leaves of which are of size one. Well-partitioned chordal graphs are a generalization of …

Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a family of graphs, and let $p$ and $r$ be nonnegative integers. The $(p,r,\mathcal{F})$-Covering problem asks whether for a graph $G$ and an integer $k$, there exists a set $D$ of at most $k$ vertices in $G$ such that $G^p\setminus N_G^r$ has no induced subgraph isomorphic to a graph in $\mathcal{F}$, where …
