A rigid interval graph is an interval graph which has only one clique tree. In 2009, Panda and Das show that all connected unit interval graphs are rigid interval graphs. Generalizing the two classic graph search algorithms, Lexicographic Breadth-First Search (LBFS) and Maximum Cardinality Search (MCS), Corneil and Krueger propose in 2008 the so-called Maximal Neighborhood Search (MNS) and show...

In 1969, Roberts introduced proper and unit interval graphs and proved that these classes are equal. Natural generalizations of unit interval graphs called k-length interval graphs were considered in which the number of different lengths of intervals is limited by k. Even after decades of research, no insight into their structure is known and the complexity of recognition is open even for k = 2...
