Proper interval graphs and the guard problem
This paper is a study of the hamiltonicity of proper interval graphs with applications to the guard problem in spiral polygons. We prove that proper interval graphs with ~> 2 vertices have hamiltonian paths, those with ~>3 vertices have hamiltonian cycles, and those with />4 vertices are hamiltonian-connected if and only if they are, respectively, 1-, 2-, or 3-connected. We also study the guard...
متن کاملConnected Proper Interval Graphs and the Guard Problem in Spiral Polygons
The main purpose of this paper is to study the hamiltonicity of proper interval graphs and applications of these graphs to the guard problem in spiral polygons. The Hamiltonian path (circuit) problem is, given an undirected graph G = (V ,E), to determine whether G contains a Hamiltonian path (circuit). These two problems are well-known N P-complete problems. In the rst part of this paper, we sh...
متن کاملThe minimum linear arrangement problem on proper interval graphs
We present a linear time algorithm for the minimum linear arrangement problem on proper interval graphs. The obtained ordering is a 4-approximation for general interval graphs. 1 Preliminaries Let F be a family of nonempty sets. The intersection graph of F is obtained by representing each set in F by a vertex and connecting two vertices by an edge if and only if their corresponding sets interse...
متن کاملClosed graphs are proper interval graphs
Let G be a connected simple graph. We prove that G is a closed graph if and only if G is a proper interval graph. As a consequence we obtain that there exist linear-time algorithms for closed graph recognition.
متن کاملCutwidth of Split Graphs, Threshold Graphs, and Proper Interval Graphs
We give a linear-time algorithm to compute the cutwidth of threshold graphs, thereby resolving the computational complexity of cutwidth on this graph class. Although our algorithm is simple and intuitive, its correctness proof relies on a series of non-trivial structural results, and turns out to be surprisingly complex. Threshold graphs are a well-studied subclass of interval graphs and of spl...
