Token sliding independent set reconfiguration on graphs with few $P_4$'s

We consider the INDEPENDENT SET RECONFIGURATION problem under the Token Sliding rule. Let $I$ be an independent set of a simple undirected graph $G$. Suppose that each vertex of $I$ has a token placed on it. The tokens are allowed to be moved, one at a time, by sliding along the edges of $G$, so that after each move, the vertices having tokens always form an independent set of $G$. The problem we deal is to decide if we can transform $I$ into $I'$ through a sequence of steps, each of which involves substituting a vertex in the current independent set with one of its neighbours to obtain another independent set. This problem of determining if one independent set of a graph "is reachable" from another independent set of it is known to be PSPACE-hard even for split graphs, planar graphs, and graphs of bounded treewidth. Polynomial time algorithms have been obtained for certain graph classes like trees, interval graphs, claw-free graphs, bipartite permutation graphs, block graphs, and cographs. We present a polynomial time algorithm for the problem on $P_4$-tidy graphs and $(q,q-4)$-graphs, both families of graphs generalizing cographs.
