On the strong p-Helly property

The notion of strong p-Helly hypergraphs was introduced by Golumbic and Jamison in 1985 [M.C. Golumbic, R.E. Jamison, The edge intersection graphs of paths in a tree, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 38 (1985) 8–22]. Independently, other authors [A. Bretto, S. Ubéda, J. Žerovnik, A polynomial algorithm for the strong Helly property. Inform. Process. Lett. 81 (2002) 55–57, E. Prisner, Hereditary clique-...

An efficient algorithm for Helly property recognition in a linear hypergraph

In this article we characterize bipartite graphs whose associated neighborhood hypergraphs have the Helly property. We examine incidence graphs of both hypergraphs and linear hypergraphs and we give a polynomial algorithm to recognize if a linear hypergraph has the Helly property.

Helly Property and Satisfiability of Boolean Formulas Defined on Set Systems

We study the problem of satisfiability of Boolean formulas φ in conjunctive normal form whose literals have the form v ∈ S and express the membership of values to sets S of a given set system S. We establish the following dichotomy result. We show that checking the satisfiability of such formulas (called S-formulas) with three or more literals per clause is NP-complete except the trivial case w...

On Hereditary Helly Classes of Graphs

In graph theory, the Helly property has been applied to families of sets, such as cliques, disks, bicliques, and neighbourhoods, leading to the classes of clique-Helly, disk-Helly, biclique-Helly, neighbourhood-Helly graphs, respectively. A natural question is to determine for which graphs the corresponding Helly property holds, for every induced subgraph. This leads to the corresponding classe...

Complexity Aspects of the Helly Property: Graphs and Hypergraphs∗

In 1923, Eduard Helly published his celebrated theorem, which originated the well known Helly property. A family of subsets has the Helly property when every subfamily thereof, formed by pairwise intersecting subsets, contains a common element. Many generalizations of this property exist which are relevant to some fields of mathematics, and have several applications in computer science. In this...
