Obstruction characterization of co-TT graphs
Threshold tolerance graphs and their complement graphs ( known as co-TT
graphs) were introduced by Monma, Reed and Trotter[24]. Introducing the concept
of negative interval Hell et al.[19] defined signed-interval bigraphs/digraphs
and have shown that they are equivalent to several seemingly different classes
of bigraphs/digraphs. They have also shown that co-TT graphs are equivalent to
symmetric signed-interval digraphs. In this paper we characterize
signed-interval bigraphs and signed-interval graphs respectively in terms of
their biadjacency matrices and adjacency matrices. Finally, based on the
geometric representation of signed-interval graphs we have setteled the open
problem of forbidden induced subgraph characterization of co-TT graphs posed by
Monma, Reed and Trotter in the same paper.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:2206.0591
A Simple Linear Time LexBFS Cograph Recognition Algorithm
International audienceThis paper introduces a new simple linear time algorithm to recognize cographs (graphs without an induced P 4). Unlike other cograph recognition algorithms, the new algorithm uses a multisweep Lexicographic Breadth First Search (LexBFS) approach, and introduces a new variant of LexBFS, called LexBFS−, operating on the complement of the given graph G and breaking ties with respect to an initial LexBFS. The algorithm either produces the cotree of G or identifies an induced P 4
