We explore what could make recognition of particular intersection-defined classes hard. We focus mainly on unit grid intersection graphs (UGIGs), i.e., intersection graphs of unit-length axis-aligned segments and grid intersection graphs…
In this article we introduce and study the intersection graph of graded ideals of graded rings. The intersection graph of $G-$graded ideals of a graded ring $(R,G)$ is a simple graph, denoted by $Gr_G(R)$, whose vertices are the nontrivial…
Tolerance graphs model interval relations in such a way that intervals can tolerate a certain degree of overlap without being in conflict. This subclass of perfect graphs has been extensively studied, due to both its interesting structure…
An impressive recent line of work has charted the complexity landscape of distributed graph algorithms. For many settings, it has been determined which time complexities exist, and which do not (in the sense that no local problem could have…
Intersection graphs of geometric objects have been extensively studied, both due to their interesting structure and their numerous applications; prominent examples include interval graphs and permutation graphs. In this paper we study a…
Naor, Parter, and Yogev [SODA 2020] recently designed a compiler for automatically translating standard centralized interactive protocols to distributed interactive protocols, as introduced by Kol, Oshman, and Saxena [PODC 2018]. In…
Chord diagrams on circles and their intersection graphs (also known as circle graphs) have been intensively studied, and have many applications to the study of knots and knot invariants, among others. However, chord diagrams on more general…
It was noted already in the 90s that many classic graph classes, such as interval, chordal, and bipartite graphs, can be characterized by the existence of an ordering of the vertices avoiding some ordered subgraphs, called patterns. Very…
We collect some general results on graph limits associated to hereditary classes of graphs. As examples, we consider some classes defined by forbidden subgraphs and some classes of intersection graphs, including triangle-free graphs,…
It has been known since 1991 that the problem of recognizing grid intersection graphs is NP-complete. Here we use a modified argument of the above result to show that even if we restrict to the class of unit grid intersection graphs…
We consider the graph class Grounded-L corresponding to graphs that admit an intersection representation by L-shaped curves, where additionally the topmost points of each curve are assumed to belong to a common horizontal line. We prove…
Circular-arc graphs are graphs that can be represented as intersection graphs of subpaths of a cycle. Interval graphs are graphs that can be represented as intersection graphs of subpaths of a path. Since cycles are locally paths, every…
We introduce I/O-optimal certifying algorithms for bipartite graphs, as well as for the classes of split, threshold, bipartite chain, and trivially perfect graphs. When the input graph is a class member, the certifying algorithm returns a…
A well-established research line in structural and algorithmic graph theory is characterizing graph classes by listing their minimal obstructions. When this list is finite for some class $\mathcal C$ we obtain a polynomial-time algorithm…
Distributed networks are prone to errors so verifying their output is critical. Hence, we develop LOCAL certification protocols for graph properties in which nodes are given certificates that allow them to check whether their network as a…
Chordal graphs are the graphs in which every cycle of length at least four has a chord. A set $S$ is a vertex separator for vertices $a$ and $b$ if the removal of $S$ of the graph separates $a$ and $b$ into distinct connected components. A…
A proof-labeling scheme (PLS) for a boolean predicate $\Pi$ on labeled graphs is a mechanism used for certifying the legality with respect to $\Pi$ of global network states in a distributed manner. In a PLS, a certificate is assigned to…
Let $G$ be a group. The intersection subgroup graph of $G$ (introduced by Anderson et al. \cite{anderson}) is the simple graph $\Gamma_{S}(G)$ whose vertices are those non-trivial subgroups say $H$ of $G$ with $H\cap K=\{e\}$ for some…
An interval graph is the intersection graph of a finite set of intervals on a line and a circular-arc graph is the intersection graph of a finite set of arcs on a circle. While a forbidden induced subgraph characterization of interval…
Let B be a finite collection of geometric (not necessarily convex) bodies in the plane. Clearly, this class of geometric objects naturally generalizes the class of disks, lines, ellipsoids, and even convex polygons. We consider geometric…
