Given a set of objects $O$ in the plane, the corresponding intersection graph is defined as follows. Each object defines a vertex and an edge joins two vertices whenever the corresponding objects intersect. We study here the case of unit…

An \emph{outer-string representation} of a graph $G$ is an intersection representation of $G$ where vertices are represented by curves (strings) inside the unit disk and each curve has exactly one endpoint on the boundary of the unit disk…

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…

Exact pattern matching in labeled graphs is the problem of searching paths of a graph $G=(V,E)$ that spell the same string as the pattern $P[1..m]$. This basic problem can be found at the heart of more complex operations on variation graphs…

We introduce the cycle intersection graph of a graph, an adaptation of the cycle graph of a graph, and use the structure of these graphs to prove an upper bound for the decycling number of all even graphs. This bound is shown to be…

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…

Threshold graphs are recursive deterministic network models that have been proposed for describing certain economic and social interactions. One drawback of this graph family is that it has limited generative attachment rules. To mitigate…

This research contains as a main result the prove that every Chordal $B_1$-EPG graph is simultaneously in the graph classes VPT and EPT. In addition, we describe structures that must be present in any $B_1$-EPG graph which does not admit a…

An (h,s,t)-representation of a graph G consists of a collection of subtrees of a tree T, where each subtree corresponds to a vertex of G such that (i) the maximum degree of T is at most h, (ii) every subtree has maximum degree at mots s,…

Path graphs are intersection graphs of paths in a tree. We start from the characterization of path graphs by Monma and Wei [C.L.~Monma,~and~V.K.~Wei, Intersection Graphs of Paths in a Tree, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B, 41:2 (1986) 141--181]…

Vertex connectivity and edge connectivity are fundamental concepts in graph theory that have been widely studied from both structural and algorithmic perspectives. The focus of this paper is on computing these two parameters for graphs…

We investigate graphs that can be represented as vertex intersections of horizontal and vertical paths in a grid, the so called $B_0$-VPG graphs. Recognizing this class is an NP-complete problem. Although, there exists a polynomial time…

In this paper, we determine the computational complexity of recognizing two graph classes, \emph{grounded L}-graphs and \emph{stabbable grid intersection} graphs. An L-shape is made by joining the bottom end-point of a vertical ($\vert$)…

In this paper we count all the subpaths of a given graph G; including the subpaths of length zero, and we call this quantity the subpath number of G. The subpath number is related to the extensively studied number of subtrees, as it can be…

A graph $G$ is a pairwise compatibility graph (PCG) if there exists an edge-weighted tree and an interval $I$, such that each leaf of the tree is a vertex of the graph, and there is an edge $\{ x, y \}$ in $G$ if and only if the weight of…

Graph, as an important data representation, is ubiquitous in many real world applications ranging from social network analysis to biology. How to correctly and effectively learn and extract information from graph is essential for a large…

A \emph{Stick graph} is an intersection graph of axis-aligned segments such that the left end-points of the horizontal segments and the bottom end-points of the vertical segments lie on a `ground line,' a line with slope $-1$. It is an open…

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…

Point-set embeddings and large-angle crossings are two areas of graph drawing that independently have received a lot of attention in the past few years. In this paper, we consider problems in the intersection of these two areas. Given the…

A class $\mathcal{G}$ of graphs is called hereditary if it is closed under taking induced subgraphs. We denote by $G^{epex}$ the class of graphs that are at most one edge away from being in $\mathcal{G}$. We note that $G^{epex}$ is…
