Recent developments on graphs of bounded clique-width

چکیده
Whether the clique-width of graphs in a certain class is bounded or not is an important question from an algorithmic point of view, since many problems that are NP-hard in general admit polynomial-time solutions when restricted to graphs of bounded clique-width. Over the last few years many classes of graphs have been shown to have bounded clique-width. For many, this parameter has been proved to be unbounded. This paper provides a survey of recent results addressing this question.

Polynomial-time Algorithm for Isomorphism of Graphs with Clique-width at most 3
The clique-width is a measure of complexity of decomposing graphs into certain tree-like structures. The class of graphs with bounded clique-width contains bounded tree-width graphs. While there are many results on the graph isomorphism problem for bounded treewidth graphs, very little is known about isomorphism of bounded cliquewidth graphs. We give the first polynomial-time graph isomorphism ...
متن کاملA comparison of two approaches for polynomial time algorithms computing basic graph parameters
In this paper we compare and illustrate the algorithmic use of graphs of bounded treewidth and graphs of bounded clique-width. For this purpose we give polynomial time algorithms for computing the four basic graph parameters independence number, clique number, chromatic number, and clique covering number on a given tree structure of graphs of bounded tree-width and graphs of bounded clique-widt...
متن کاملMinimal forbidden induced subgraphs of graphs of bounded clique-width and bounded linear clique-width
In the study of full bubble model graphs of bounded clique-width and bounded linear clique-width, we determined complete sets of forbidden induced subgraphs, that are minimal in the class of full bubble model graphs. In this note, we show that (almost all of) these graphs are minimal in the class of all graphs. As a corollary, we can give sets of minimal forbidden induced subgraphs for graphs o...
متن کاملClique-width and tree-width of sparse graphs
Tree-width and clique-width are two important graph complexity measures that serve as parameters in many fixed-parameter tractable (FPT) algorithms. The same classes of sparse graphs, in particular of planar graphs and of graphs of bounded degree have bounded tree-width and bounded clique-width. We prove that, for sparse graphs, clique-width is polynomially bounded in terms of tree-width. For p...
متن کاملOn the OBDD Size for Graphs of Bounded Tree- and Clique-Width
We study the size of OBDDs (ordered binary decision diagrams) for representing the adjacency function fG of a graph G on n vertices. Our results are as follows: for graphs of bounded tree-width there is an OBDD of size O(logn) for fG that uses encodings of size O(logn) for the vertices; for graphs of bounded clique-width there is an OBDD of size O(n) for fG that uses encodings of size O(n) for ...
