Claw-free graphs. III. Circular interval graphs
Construct a graph as follows. Take a circle, and a collection of intervals from it, no three of which have union the entire circle; take a finite set of points V from the circle; and make a graph with vertex set V in which two vertices are adjacent if they both belong to one of the intervals. Such graphs are “circular interval graphs”, and they form an important subclass of the class of all cla...
متن کاملClaw-free circular-perfect graphs
The circular chromatic number of a graph is a well-studied refinement of the chromatic number. Circular-perfect graphs form a superclass of perfect graphs defined by means of this more general coloring concept. This paper studies claw-free circular-perfect graphs. First we prove that ifG is a connected claw-free circular-perfect graph with χ(G) > ω(G), then min{α(G), ω(G)} = 2. We use this resu...
متن کاملClaw-free Graphs VI. Colouring Claw-free Graphs
In this paper we prove that if G is a connected claw-free graph with three pairwise non-adjacent vertices, with chromatic number χ and clique number ω, then χ ≤ 2ω and the same for the complement of G. We also prove that the choice number of G is at most 2ω, except possibly in the case when G can be obtained from a subgraph of the Schläfli graph by replicating vertices. Finally, we show that th...
متن کاملEquimatchable Claw-Free Graphs
A graph is equimatchable if all of its maximal matchings have the same size. A graph is claw-free if it does not have a claw as an induced subgraph. In this paper, we provide, to the best of our knowledge, the first characterization of claw-free equimatchable graphs by identifying the equimatchable clawfree graph families. This characterization implies an efficient recognition algorithm.
متن کاملMinimal Claw-Free Graphs
A graph G is a minimal claw-free graph (m.c.f. graph) if it contains no K1,3 (claw) as an induced subgraph and if, for each edge e of G, G − e contains an induced claw. We investigate properties of m.c.f. graphs, establish sharp bounds on their orders and the degrees of their vertices, and characterize graphs which have m.c.f. line graphs. MSC 2000: 05C75, 05C07
