چکیده

In this paper, the space requirements for the OBDD representation of certain graph classes, specifically cographs, several types of graphs with few P4s, unit interval graphs, interval graphs and bipartite graphs are investigated. Upper and lower bounds are proven for all these graph classes and it is shown that in most (but not all) cases a representation of the graphs by OBDDs is advantageous with respect to space requirements.

OBDD Representation of Intersection Graphs

Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams (OBDDs for short) are popular dynamic data structures for Boolean functions. In some modern applications, we have to handle such huge graphs that the usual explicit representations by adjacency lists or adjacency matrices are infeasible. To deal with such huge graphs, OBDD-based graph representations and algorithms have been investigated. Although the size of OB...

Complexity of Problems on Graphs Represented as OBDDs

To analyze the complexity of decision problems on graphs, one normally assumes that the input size is polynomial in the number of vertices. Galperin and Wigderson [GW83] and, later, Papadimitriou and Yannakakis [PY86] investigated the complexity of these problems when the input graph is represented by a polylogarithmically succinct circuit. They showed that, under such a representation, certain...

Building Free Binary Decision Diagrams Using SAT Solvers

Free Binary Decision Diagrams (FBDDs) are a data structure for the representation of Boolean functions. In contrast to Ordered Binary Decision Diagrams (OBDDs) FBDDs allow different variable orderings along each path. Thus, FBDDs are the more compact representation while most of the properties of OBDDs are kept. However, how to efficiently build small FBDDs for a given function is still an open...

On the Relative Succinctness of Sentential Decision Diagrams

Sentential decision diagrams (SDDs) introduced by Darwiche in 2011 are a promising representation type used in knowledge compilation. The relative succinctness of representation types is an important subject in this area. The aim of the paper is to identify which kind of Boolean functions can be represented by SDDs of small size with respect to the number of variables the functions are defined ...
