Claw-free graphs. VII. Quasi-line graphs
A graph is a quasi-line graph if for every vertex v, the set of neighbours of v is expressible as the union of two cliques. Such graphs are more general than line graphs, but less general than claw-free graphs. Here we give a construction for all quasi-line graphs; it turns out that there are basically two kinds of connected quasi-line graphs, one a generalization of line graphs, and the other ...
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
متن کاملWebs and line graphs belong to the classes of quasi-line graphs and claw-free graphs
Graphs with circular symmetry, called webs, are relevant w.r.t. describing the stable set polytopes of two larger graph classes, quasi-line graphs [8,12] and claw-free graphs [7,8]. Providing a decent linear description of the stable set polytopes of claw-free graphs is a long-standing problem [9]. Ben Rebea conjectured a description for quasi-line graphs, see [12]; Chudnovsky and Seymour [2] v...
