A unit disk intersection representation (UDR) of a graph $G$ represents each vertex of $G$ as a unit disk in the plane, such that two disks intersect if and only if their vertices are adjacent in $G$. A UDR with interior-disjoint disks is…

The overlap graphs of subtrees in a tree (SOGs) generalise many other graphs classes with set representation characterisations. The complexity of recognising SOGs in open. The complexities of recognising many subclasses of SOGs are known.…

Grid graphs, and, more generally, $k\times r$ grid graphs, form one of the most basic classes of geometric graphs. Over the past few decades, a large body of works studied the (in)tractability of various computational problems on grid…

In 2007, Arkin et al. initiated a systematic study of the complexity of the Hamiltonian cycle problem on square, triangular, or hexagonal grid graphs, restricted to polygonal, thin, superthin, degree-bounded, or solid grid graphs. They…

Planar graphs can be represented as intersection graphs of different types of geometric objects in the plane, e.g., circles (Koebe, 1936), line segments (Chalopin \& Gon{\c{c}}alves, 2009), \textsc{L}-shapes (Gon{\c{c}}alves et al, 2018).…

An identifying code of a graph is a subset of its vertices such that every vertex of the graph is uniquely identified by the set of its neighbours within the code. We study the edge-identifying code problem, i.e. the identifying code…

We investigate edge-intersection graphs of paths in the plane grid, regarding a parameter called the bend-number. I.e., every vertex is represented by a grid path and two vertices are adjacent if and only if the two grid paths share at…

Pairwise Compatibility Graphs (PCGs) form a tree-metric graph class that originated in phylogeny and has since attracted sustained interest in graph theory. Several natural generalizations have been proposed in order to overcome the…

Unitary graphs are arc-transitive graphs with vertices the flags of Hermitian unitals and edges defined by certain elements of the underlying finite fields. They played a significant role in a recent classification of a class of…

A graph $G$ is said to be a `set graph' if it admits an acyclic orientation that is also `extensional', in the sense that the out-neighborhoods of its vertices are pairwise distinct. Equivalently, a set graph is the underlying graph of the…

In this paper, we are interested in the edge intersection graphs of paths of a grid where each path has at most one bend, called B1-EPG graphs and first introduced by Golumbic et al (2009). We also consider a proper subclass of B1-EPG, the…

We introduce a new class of intersection graphs, the edge intersection graphs of paths on a triangular grid, called EPGt graphs. We show similarities and differences from this new class to the well-known class of EPG graphs. A turn of a…

We study subclasses of grid intersection graphs from the perspective of order dimension. We show that partial orders of height two whose comparability graph is a grid intersection graph have order dimension at most four. Starting from this…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is called a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG) if there exists an edge-weighted tree $T$ and two non-negative real numbers $d_{min}$ and $d_{max}$ such that each leaf $u$ of $T$ corresponds to a vertex $u \in V$ and there…

In an EPG-representation of a graph $G$ each vertex is represented by a path in the rectangular grid, and $(v,w)$ is an edge in $G$ if and only if the paths representing $v$ an $w$ share a grid-edge. Requiring paths representing edges to be…

Unigraphs are graphs identifiable up to isomorphism from their degree sequences. Given a class $\mathcal{A}$ of graphs, we define the class of $\mathcal{A}$-unigraphs to be graphs identifiable from degree sequence and membership in…

We improve the best known upper bound on the number of edges in a unit-distance graph on $n$ vertices for each $n\in\{16,\ldots,30\}$. When $n\leq 21$, our bounds match the best known lower bounds, and we fully enumerate the densest…

A \textit{$t$-unit-bar representation} of a graph $G$ is an assignment of sets of at most $t$ horizontal unit-length segments in the plane to the vertices of $G$ so that (1) all of the segments are pairwise nonintersecting, and (2) two…
