A novel approach to complex problems has been previously applied to graph classification and the graph equivalence problem. Here we apply it to the NP complete problem of finding the largest perfect clique within a graph $G$.

A complete graph is the graph in which every two vertices are adjacent. For a graph $G=(V,E)$, the complete width of $G$ is the minimum $k$ such that there exist $k$ independent sets $\mathtt{N}_i\subseteq V$, $1\le i\le k$, such that the…

In extremal graph theory, the problem of finding the elements of a given class of graphs which contain the most cliques traces its routes back to Tur\'an's famous theorem. We consider the implications of the connectivity property of…

We consider several classes of intersection graphs of line segments in the plane and prove new equality and separation results between those classes. In particular, we show that: (1) intersection graphs of grounded segments and intersection…

Finding complete subgraphs in a graph, that is, cliques, is a key problem and has many real-world applications, e.g., finding communities in social networks, clustering gene expression data, modeling ecological niches in food webs, and…

Bir\'{o} et al. (1992) introduced $H$-graphs, intersection graphs of connected subgraphs of a subdivision of a graph $H$. They are related to many classes of geometric intersection graphs, e.g., interval graphs, circular-arc graphs, split…

Finding a Maximum Clique is a classic property test from graph theory; find any one of the largest complete subgraphs in an Erd\"os-R\'enyi G(N, p) random graph. We use Maximum Clique to explore the structure of the problem as a function of…

In this paper, we study the maximum matching problem in RDV graphs, i.e., graphs that are vertex-intersection graphs of downward paths in a rooted tree. We show that this problem can be reduced to a problem of testing (repeatedly) whether a…

A graph G is prismatic if for every triangle T of G, every vertex of G not in T has a unique neighbour in T. The complement of a prismatic graph is called \emph{antiprismatic}. The complexity of colouring antiprismatic graphs is still…

The chromatic number of signed graphs is defined recently. The coloring and clique problem of interval graphs has been studied and polynomial time algorithms are established. Here we consider these problems for signed interval graphs and…

All the work made so far on edge-covering a graph by cliques focus on finding the minimum number of cliques that cover the graph. On this paper, we fix the number of cliques that cover a graph by the same number of vertices that the graph…
