Convexities in Some Special Graph Classes ---New Results in AT-free Graphs and Beyond

Discrete Mathematics 2015-09-17 v1

Abstract

We study convexity properties of graphs. In this paper we present a linear-time algorithm for the geodetic number in tree-cographs. Settling a 10-year-old conjecture, we prove that the Steiner number is at least the geodetic number in AT-free graphs. Computing a maximal and proper monophonic set in \AT\AT-free graphs is NP-complete. We present polynomial algorithms for the monophonic number in permutation graphs and the geodetic number in P4P_4- sparse graphs.
