Circular perfect graphs

چکیده
For 1 ≤ d ≤ k, let Kk/d be the graph with vertices 0, 1, · · · , k − 1, in which i ∼ j if d ≤ |i − j| ≤ k − d. The circular chromatic number χc(G) of a graph G is the minimum of those k/d for which G admits a homomorphism to Kk/d. The circular clique number ωc(G) of G is the maximum of those k/d for which Kk/d admits a homomorphism to G. A graph G is circular perfect if for every induced subgraph H of G we have χc(H) = ωc(H). This paper surveys results on circular perfect graphs.

Triangle-free strongly circular-perfect graphs
Zhu [15] introduced circular-perfect graphs as a superclass of the well-known perfect graphs and as an important χ-bound class of graphs with the smallest non-trivial χ-binding function χ(G) ≤ ω(G)+1. Perfect graphs have been recently characterized as those graphs without odd holes and odd antiholes as induced subgraphs [4]; in particular, perfect graphs are closed under complementation [7]. In...
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 کاملOn classes of minimal circular-imperfect graphs
Circular-perfect graphs form a natural superclass of perfect graphs: on the one hand due to their definition by means of a more general coloring concept, on the other hand as an important class of χ-bound graphs with the smallest non-trivial χ-binding function χ(G) ≤ ω(G) + 1. The Strong Perfect Graph Conjecture, recently settled by Chudnovsky et al. [4], provides a characterization of perfect ...
متن کاملA note on the circular chromatic number of circular perfect planar graphs
Computing the circular chromatic number of a given planar graph is NP-complete, as it is already NP-complete to compute its chromatic number. In this note, we prove that the circular clique number of a planar graph, and therefore the circular chromatic number of a circular perfect graph, is computable in O(ne) time; outerplanar graphs are circular perfect.
متن کاملPartial characterizations of clique-perfect graphs II: Diamond-free and Helly circular-arc graphs
A clique-transversal of a graph G is a subset of vertices that meets all the cliques of G. A clique-independent set is a collection of pairwise vertex-disjoint cliques. A graph G is clique-perfect if the sizes of a minimum clique-transversal and a maximum clique-independent set are equal for every induced subgraph ofG. The list of minimal forbidden induced subgraphs for the class of clique-perf...
متن کاملClique and chromatic number of circular-perfect graphs
A main result of combinatorial optimization is that clique and chromatic number of a perfect graph are computable in polynomial time (Grötschel, Lovász and Schrijver 1981). Circular-perfect graphs form a well-studied superclass of perfect graphs. We extend the above result for perfect graphs by showing that clique and chromatic number of a circularperfect graph are computable in polynomial time...
