Does an Epub follow the same format? If so, should the 'automatic' TOC include these things, or should it simply start with 'chapter one'?

It's entirely up to you, none of those things are required or prohibited by the ePub format itself. But if you plan to sell the book then there might be additional rules or guidelines set by the retailer.
The ones I've bought usually open at the cover page and follow the same format as the paper edition of the book, except that they often include a table of contents even when the paper book doesn't have one.
