As a survey-type article, the paper reviews some results on a regular covering space in digital covering theory. The recent paper [10](see also [12]) established the notion of regular covering space in digital covering theory and studied its various properties. Besides, the papers [14, 16] developed a discrete Deck's transformation group of a digital covering. In this paper we study further their properties. By using these properties, we can classify digital covering spaces. Finally, the paper proposes an open problem.

Digital geometry has strongly contributed to the study of a discrete topological space $X{\subset}{\mathbf{Z}}^n$ with k-adjacency of ${\mathbf{Z}}^n$. As a survey-type article, we review various utilities of digital geometry.

As a survey-type article, the paper reviews various digital topological utilities from digital covering theory. Digital covering theory has strongly contributed to the calculation of the digital k-fundamental group of both a digital space(a set with k-adjacency or digital k-graph) and a digital product. Furthermore, it has been used in classifying digital spaces, establishing almost Van Kampen theory which is the digital version of van Kampen theorem in algebrate topology, developing the generalized universal covering property, and so forth. Finally, we remark on the digital k-surface structure of a Cartesian product of two simple closed $k_i$-curves in ${\mathbf{Z}}^n$, $i{\in}{1,2}$.
