On second iterated clique graphs that are also third iterated clique graphs

چکیده
Iterated clique graphs arise when the clique operator is applied to a graph more than once. Determining whether a graph is a clique graph or an iterated clique graph is usually a difficult task. The fact that being a clique graph and being an iterated clique graph are not equivalent things has been proved recently. However, it is still unknown whether the classes of second iterated clique graphs and third iterated clique graphs are the same. In this work we find classes of graphs, defined by means of conditions on the clique size and the structure of the clique intersections, whose second iterated clique graphs are also third iterated clique graphs.

Equivariant collapses and the homotopy type of iterated clique graphs
The clique graph K(G) of a simple graph G is the intersection graph of its maximal complete subgraphs, and we define iterated clique graphs by K(G) = G, K(G) = K(K(G)). We say that two graphs are homotopy equivalent if their simplicial complexes of complete subgraphs are so. From known results it can be easily inferred that Kn(G) is homotopy equivalent to G for every n if G belongs to the class...
متن کاملClique graphs of Helly circular arc graphs
Abstract: Clique graphs of several classes of graphs have been already characterized. Trees, interval graphs, chordal graphs, block graphs, clique-Helly graphs are some of them. However, no characterization of clique graphs of circular-arc graphs and some of their subclasses is known. In this paper, we present a characterization theorem of clique graphs of Helly circular-arc graphs and prove th...
متن کاملD-Spectrum and D-Energy of Complements of Iterated Line Graphs of Regular Graphs
The D-eigenvalues {µ1,…,µp} of a graph G are the eigenvalues of its distance matrix D and form its D-spectrum. The D-energy, ED(G) of G is given by ED (G) =∑i=1p |µi|. Two non cospectral graphs with respect to D are said to be D-equi energetic if they have the same D-energy. In this paper we show that if G is an r-regular graph on p vertices with 2r ≤ p - 1, then the complements of iterated lin...
متن کاملGraph relations, clique divergence and surface triangulations
This work has two aims: First, we introduce a powerful technique for proving clique divergence when the graph satisfies a certain symmetry condition. Second, we prove that each closed surface admits a clique divergent triangulation. By definition, a graph is clique divergent if the orders of its iterated clique graphs tend to infinity, and the clique graph of a graph is the intersection graph o...
متن کاملOn Clique Convergences of Graphs
Let G be a graph and KG be the set of all cliques of G, then the clique graph of G denoted by K(G) is the graph with vertex set KG and two elements Qi, Qj ∈ KG form an edge if and only if Qi ∩ Qj 6= ∅. Iterated clique graphs are defined by K0(G) = G, and K(G) = K(Kn−1(G)) for n > 0. In this paper we determine the number of cliques in K(G) when G = G1+G2, prove a necessary and sufficient conditi...
