A graph is dually chordal if it is the clique graph of a chordal graph. Alternatively, a graph is dually chordal if it admits a maximum neighbourhood order. This class generalizes known subclasses of chordal graphs such as doubly chordal graphs, strongly chordal graphs and interval graphs. We prove that Vizing's total-colour conjecture holds for dually chordal graphs. We describe a new heuristi...

Let $R$ be a non-commutative ring with unity. The commuting graph of $R$ denoted by $Gamma(R)$, is a graph with vertex set $RZ(R)$ and two vertices $a$ and $b$ are adjacent iff $ab=ba$. In this paper, we consider the commuting graph of non-commutative rings of order pq and $p^2q$ with Z(R) = 0 and non-commutative rings with unity of order $p^3q$. It is proved that $C_R(a)$ is a commutative ring...

Let D = (V (D), A(D)) be a digraph. The competition graph of D, is the graph with vertex set V (D) and edge set {uv ∈ `V (D) 2 ́ : ∃w ∈ V (D),−→ uw,−→ vw ∈ A(D)}. The double competition graph of D, is the graph with vertex set V (D) and edge set {uv ∈ `V (D) 2 ́ : ∃w1, w2 ∈ V (D),−−→ uw1,−−→ vw1,−−→ w2u,−−→ w2v ∈ A(D)}. A poset of dimension at most two is a digraph whose vertices are some points ...

The interval degree id(G) of a graph G is de/ned to be the smallest max-degree of any interval supergraphs of G. One of the reasons for our interest in this parameter is that the bandwidth of a graph is always between id(G)=2 and id(G). We prove also that for any graph G the interval degree of G is at least the pathwidth of G. We show that if G is an AT-free claw-free graph, then the interval d...
