Chordal Bipartite Graphs with High Boxicity

چکیده
The boxicity of a graph G is defined as the minimum integer k such that G is an intersection graph of axis-parallel k-dimensional boxes. Chordal bipartite graphs are bipartite graphs that do not contain an induced cycle of length greater than 4. It was conjectured by Otachi, Okamoto and Yamazaki that chordal bipartite graphs have boxicity at most 2. We disprove this conjecture by exhibiting an infinite family of chordal bipartite graphs that have unbounded boxicity.

Boxicity of Leaf Powers
The boxicity of a graph G, denoted as box(G) is defined as the minimum integer t such that G is an intersection graph of axisparallel t-dimensional boxes. A graph G is a k-leaf power if there exists a tree T such that the leaves of the tree correspond to the vertices of G and two vertices in G are adjacent if and only if their corresponding leaves in T are at a distance of at most k. Leaf power...
متن کاملA Constant Factor Approximation Algorithm for Boxicity of Circular Arc Graphs
Boxicity of a graph G(V,E) is the minimum integer k such that G can be represented as the intersection graph of k-dimensional axis parallel rectangles in R. Equivalently, it is the minimum number of interval graphs on the vertex set V such that the intersection of their edge sets is E. It is known that boxicity cannot be approximated even for graph classes like bipartite, co-bipartite and split...
متن کاملParameterized and Approximation Algorithms for Boxicity
Boxicity of a graph G(V, E), denoted by box(G), is the minimum integer k such that G can be represented as the intersection graph of axis parallel boxes in R. The problem of computing boxicity is inapproximable even for graph classes like bipartite, co-bipartite and split graphs within O(n)-factor, for any ǫ > 0 in polynomial time unless NP = ZPP . We give FPT approximation algorithms for compu...
متن کاملThe Dilworth Number of Auto-Chordal-Bipartite Graphs
The mirror (or bipartite complement) mir(B) of a bipartite graph B = (X,Y,E) has the same color classes X and Y as B, and two vertices x ∈ X and y ∈ Y are adjacent in mir(B) if and only if xy / ∈ E. A bipartite graph is chordal bipartite if none of its induced subgraphs is a chordless cycle with at least six vertices. In this paper, we deal with chordal bipartite graphs whose mirror is chordal ...
متن کاملChordal bipartite graphs of bounded tree- and clique-width
A bipartite graph is chordal bipartite if every cycle of length at least six has a chord. In the class of chordal bipartite graphs the tree-width and the clique-width are unbounded. Our main results are that chordal bipartite graphs of bounded vertex degree have bounded tree-width and that k-fork-free chordal bipartite graphs have bounded clique-width, where a k-fork is the graph arising from a...
