Abstract

We study graph classes modeled by families of non-crossing (NC) connected sets. Two classic graph classes in this context are disk graphs and proper interval graphs. We focus on the cases when the sets are paths and the host is a tree. Forbidden induced subgraph characterizations and linear time certifying recognition algorithms are given for intersection graphs of NC paths of a tree (and related subclasses). For intersection graphs of NC paths of a tree, the dominating set problem is shown to be solvable in linear time. Also, each such graph is shown to have a Hamiltonian cycle if and only if it is 2-connected, and to have a Hamiltonian path if and only if its block-cutpoint tree is a path.

Fußnoten
1
Note: all \(\exists \mathbb {R}\)-hard problems are NP-hard, see [28] for an introduction to \(\exists \mathbb {R}\).
 
2
Usually defined as having no interval strictly contained within any other.

A graph is a split graph when its vertices can be partitioned into a clique and an independent set. It is easy to see that split graphs are chordal.
