چکیده

A graph G is a circular-arc graph if it is the intersection graph of a set of arcs on a circle. That is, there is one arc for each vertex of G, and two vertices are adjacent in G if and only if the corresponding arcs intersect. We give a linear-time algorithm for recognizing this class of graphs. When G is a member of the class, the algorithm gives a certificate in the form of a set of arcs that realize it.

Recognition of circular-arc graphs and some subclasses

In this work we present three new recognition algorithms for circular-arc graphs and for two subclasses of this graph class. We give a linear-time recognition algorithm for circular-arc graphs based on the algorithm of Eschen and Spinrad [ES93, Esc97]. Our algorithm is simpler than the earlier linear-time recognition algorithm of McConnell [McC03], which is the only linear time recognition algo...

Characterizations and Linear Time Recognition of Helly Circular-Arc Graphs

A circular-arc model (C,A) is a circle C together with a collection A of arcs of C. If A satisfies the Helly Property then (C,A) is a Helly circular-arc model. A (Helly) circular-arc graph is the intersection graph of a (Helly) circular-arc model. Circular-arc graphs and their subclasses have been the object of a great deal of attention, in the literature. Linear time recognition algorithm have...

Characterizations and recognition of circular-arc graphs and subclasses: A survey

Circular graphs are intersection graphs of arcs on a circle. These graphs are reported to have been studied since 1964, and they have been receiving considerable attention since a series of papers by Tucker in the 1970s. Various subclasses of circular-arc graphs have also been studied. Among these are the proper circular-arc graphs, unit circular-arc graphs, Helly circular-arc graphs and co-bip...

Proper Helly Circular-Arc Graphs

A circular-arc model M = (C,A) is a circle C together with a collection A of arcs of C. If no arc is contained in any other then M is a proper circular-arc model, if every arc has the same length then M is a unit circular-arc model and if A satisfies the Helly Property then M is a Helly circular-arc model. A (proper) (unit) (Helly) circular-arc graph is the intersection graph of the arcs of a (...

A Simple Linear Time Algorithm for the Isomorphism Problem on Proper Circular-Arc Graphs

A circular-arc modelM = (C,A) is a circle C together with a collection A of arcs of C. If no arc is contained in any other then M is a proper circular-arc model, and if some point of C is not covered by any arc then M is an interval model. A (proper) (interval) circulararc graph is the intersection graph of a (proper) (interval) circular-arc model. Circular-arc graphs and their subclasses have ...
