The Roberts characterization of proper and unit interval graphs
In this note, a constructive proof that the classes of proper interval graphs and unit interval graphs coincide is given, a result originally established by Fred S. Roberts. Additionally, the proof yields a linear-time and space algorithm to compute a unit interval representation, given a proper interval graph as input. © 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

متن کاملA matrix characterization of interval and proper interval graphs
In this work a matrix representation that characterizes the interval and proper interval graphs is presented, which is useful for the efficient formulation and solution of optimization problems, such as the k-cluster problem. For the construction of this matrix representation every such graph is associated with a node versus node zero–one matrix. In contrast to representations used in most of t...
متن کاملCharacterization and recognition of proper tagged probe interval graphs
Interval graphs were used in the study of genomics by the famous molecular biologist Benzer. Later on probe interval graphs were introduced by Zhang as a generalization of interval graphs for the study of cosmid contig mapping of DNA. A tagged probe interval graph (briefly, TPIG) is motivated by similar applications to genomics, where the set of vertices is partitioned into two sets, namely, pr...
متن کاملProper interval graphs and the guard problem
This paper is a study of the hamiltonicity of proper interval graphs with applications to the guard problem in spiral polygons. We prove that proper interval graphs with ~> 2 vertices have hamiltonian paths, those with ~>3 vertices have hamiltonian cycles, and those with />4 vertices are hamiltonian-connected if and only if they are, respectively, 1-, 2-, or 3-connected. We also study the guard...
