چکیده

Strictly Chordality-k graphs (SC k graphs) are graphs which are either cycle free or every induced cycle is exactly k, for some fixed k, k ≥ 3. Note that k = 3 and k = 4 are precisely the Chordal graphs and Chordal Bipartite graphs, respectively. In this paper, we initiate a structural and an algo-rithmic study of SC k , k ≥ 5 graphs.

Constrained Hitting Set and Steiner Tree in SCk and 2K2-free Graphs

Strictly Chordality-k graphs (SCk) are graphs which are either cycle-free or every induced cycle is of length exactly k, k ≥ 3. Strictly chordality-3 and strictly chordality-4 graphs are well known chordal and chordal bipartite graphs, respectively. For k ≥ 5, the study has been recently initiated in [1] and various structural and algorithmic results are reported. In this paper, we show that ma...

Graphs of low chordality

The chordality of an undirected graph G, which is not acyclic, is defined as the length of the longest induced cycle in it. The chordality of an acyclic graph is defined to be 0. We use Cl (l ≥ 3) to denote a cycle of length l. An induced cycle is called a hole. A hole is an odd hole if its length is odd and is an even hole otherwise. Odd-chordality of a graph is the length of the longest odd h...

Treewidth for Graphs with Small Chordality

A graph G is k-chordal, if it does not contain chordless cycles of length larger than k. The chordality Ic of a graph G is the minimum k for which G is k-chordal. The degeneracy or the width of a graph is the maximum min-degree of any of its subgraphs. Our results are the following: ( 1) The problem of treewidth remains NP-complete when restricted to graphs with small maximum degree. (2) An upp...

On the Complexity of Connected (s, t)-Vertex Separator

We show that minimum connected (s, t)-vertex separator ((s, t)-CVS) is Ω(log2− n)-hard for any > 0 unless NP has quasi-polynomial Las-Vegas algorithms. i.e., for any > 0 and for some δ > 0, (s, t)-CVS is unlikely to have δ.log2− n-approximation algorithm. We show that (s, t)-CVS is NPcomplete on graphs with chordality at least 5 and present a polynomial-time algorithm for (s, t)-CVS on bipartit...

Tree-decompositions with bags of small diameter

This paper deals with the length of a Robertson–Seymour’s tree-decomposition. The tree-length of a graph is the largest distance between two vertices of a bag of a tree-decomposition, minimized over all tree-decompositions of the graph. The study of this invariant may be interesting in its own right because the class of bounded tree-length graphs includes (but is not reduced to) bounded chordal...
