The boxicity of a graph $G$, denoted by $box(G)$, is the least positive integer $\ell$ such that $G$ can be isomorphic to the intersection graph of a family of boxes in Euclidean $\ell$-space, where box in an Euclidean $\ell$-space is the…

We prove that the dimension of every poset whose comparability graph has maximum degree $\Delta$ is at most $\Delta\log^{1+o(1)} \Delta$. This result improves on a 30-year old bound of F\"uredi and Kahn, and is within a $\log^{o(1)}\Delta$…

The \textit{boxicity} (\textit{cubicity}) of an undirected graph $\Gamma$ is the smallest non-negative integer $k$ such that $\Gamma$ can be represented as the intersection graph of axis-parallel rectangular boxes (unit cubes) in…

A box in Euclidean $k$-space is the Cartesian product of $k$ closed intervals on the real line. The boxicity of a graph $G$, denoted by $\text{box}(G)$, is the minimum nonnegative integer $k$ such that $G$ can be isomorphic to the…

The boxicity of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is the least integer $k$ for which there exist $k$ interval graphs $G_i=(V,E_i)$, $1 \le i \le k$, such that $E=E_1 \cap ... \cap E_k$. Scheinerman proved in 1984 that outerplanar graphs have boxicity at…

The boxicity $\operatorname{box}(H)$ of a graph $H$ is the smallest integer $d$ such that $H$ is the intersection of $d$ interval graphs, or equivalently, that $H$ is the intersection graph of axis-aligned boxes in $\mathbb{R}^d$. These…

The 'boxicity' ('cubicity') of a graph G is the minimum natural number k such that G can be represented as an intersection graph of axis-parallel rectangular boxes (axis-parallel unit cubes) in $R^k$. In this article, we give estimates on…

Boxicity of a graph H, denoted by box(H), is the minimum integer k such that H is an intersection graph of axis-parallel k-dimensional boxes in R^k. In this paper, we show that for a line graph G of a multigraph, box(G) <= 2\Delta(\lceil…

A box is the cartesian product of real intervals, which are either bounded or equal to $\mathbb{R}$. A box is said to be $d$-local if at most $d$ of the intervals are bounded. In this paper, we investigate the recently introduced local…

Boxicity of a graph G(V, E) is the minimum integer k such that G can be represented as the intersection graph of axis parallel boxes in $\mathbb{R}^k$. Cubicity is a variant of boxicity, where the axis parallel boxes in the intersection…

Boxicity of a graph $G(V,E)$ is the minimum integer $k$ such that $G$ can be represented as the intersection graph of $k$-dimensional axis parallel rectangles in $\mathbf{R}^k$. Equivalently, it is the minimum number of interval graphs on…

The dimension of a partially ordered set $P$ (poset for short) is the least positive integer $d$ such that $P$ is isomorphic to a subposet of $\mathbb{R}^d$ with the natural product order. Dimension is arguably the most widely studied…

A family $\mathcal{F}$ of permutations of the vertices of a hypergraph $H$ is called 'pairwise suitable' for $H$ if, for every pair of disjoint edges in $H$, there exists a permutation in $\mathcal{F}$ in which all the vertices in one edge…

Motivated by quite recent research involving the relationship between the dimension of a poset and graph-theoretic properties of its cover graph, we show that for every $d\geq 1$, if $P$ is a poset and the dimension of a subposet $B$ of $P$…

As a generalization of the concept of the partition dimension of a graph, this article introduces the notion of the $k$-partition dimension. Given a nontrivial connected graph $G=(V,E)$, a partition $\Pi$ of $V$ is said to be a…

For a graph $G$, its \emph{cubicity} $cub(G)$ is the minimum dimension $k$ such that $G$ is representable as the intersection graph of (axis--parallel) cubes in $k$--dimensional space. Chandran, Mannino and Oriolo showed that for a…
