چکیده

A graph is a strict-quasi parity (SQP) graph if every induced subgraph that is not a clique contains a pair of vertices with no odd chordless path between them (an``even pair''). We present an O…n 3 † algorithm for recognizing planar strict quasi-parity graphs, based on Wen-Lian Hsu's decomposition of planar (perfect) graphs and on the (non-algorithmic) characterization of planar minimal non-SQP graphs given in [9].

On Planar Quasi-Parity Graphs

A graph G is strict quasi parity (SQP) if every induced subgraph of G that is not a clique contains a pair of vertices with no odd chordless path between them (an even pair). Hougardy conjectured that the minimal forbidden subgraphs for the class of SQP graphs are the odd chordless cycles, the complements of odd or even chordless cycles, and some line-graphs of bipartite graphs. Here we prove t...

Even Pairs in Claw-Free Perfect Graphs

An even pair in a graph is a pair of non-adjacent vertices such that every chordless path between them has even length. A graph is called strict quasi-parity when every induced subgraph that is not a clique has an even pair, and it is called perfectly contractile when every induced subgraph can be turned into a clique through a sequence of even-pair contractions. In this paper we determine the ...

On Restrictions of Balanced 2-Interval Graphs

The class of 2-interval graphs has been introduced for modelling scheduling and allocation problems, and more recently for specific bioinformatic problems. Some of those applications imply restrictions on the 2-interval graphs, and justify the introduction of a hierarchy of subclasses of 2-interval graphs that generalize line graphs: balanced 2-interval graphs, unit 2-interval graphs, and (x,x)...

Beyond Outerplanarity

We study straight-line drawings of graphs where the vertices are placed in convex position in the plane, i.e., convex drawings. We consider two families of graph classes with nice convex drawings: outer k-planar graphs, where each edge is crossed by at most k other edges; and, outer k-quasi-planar graphs where no k edges can mutually cross. We show that the outer k-planar graphs are (b √ 4k + 1...

Recognizing IC-Planar and NIC-Planar Graphs

We prove that triangulated IC-planar and NIC-planar graphs can be recognized in cubic time. A graph is 1-planar if it can be drawn in the plane with at most one crossing per edge. A drawing is IC-planar if, in addition, each vertex is incident to at most one crossing edge and NIC-planar if two pairs of crossing edges share at most one vertex. In a triangulated drawing each face is a triangle. I...
