A Separator Theorem for Chordal Graphs

open access: yes, 1982
Chordal graphs are undirected graphs in which every cycle of length at least four has a chord. They are sometimes called rigid circuit graphs or perfect elimination graphs; the last name reflects their utility in modelling Gaussian elimination on ...

A new method for computing the vertex PI index with applications to special classes of graphs

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics
The Padmakar-Ivan (PI) index of a graph G is given by [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the number of equidistant vertices for the edge e.

End Simplicial Vertices in Path Graphs

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2016
A graph is a path graph if there is a tree, called UV -model, whose vertices are the maximal cliques of the graph and for each vertex x of the graph the set of maximal cliques that contains it induces a path in the tree.

New proofs for strongly chordal graphs and chordal bipartite graphs

open access: yes, 2004
We give new proofs of well-known characterizations of strongly chordal graphs and chordal bipartite graphs. The key ingredient is the dual hypertree structure for totally balanced hypergraphs.

Relaxations of the weakly chordal condition in graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Both chordal and weakly chordal graphs have been topics of research in graph theory for many years. Upon reading their definitions it is clear that the weakly chordal class of graphs is a relaxation of the chordal condition for graphs.

The Hadwiger number, chordal graphs and -perfection

open access: yesAKCE International Journal of Graphs and Combinatorics, 2017
A graph is chordal if every induced cycle has three vertices. The Hadwiger number is the order of the largest complete minor of a graph. We characterize the chordal graphs in terms of the Hadwiger number and we also characterize the families of graphs ...

Clique roots of K4-free chordal graphs

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Graph Theory and Applications, 2019
The clique polynomial C(G, x) of a finite, simple and undirected graph G = (V, E) is defined as the ordinary generating function of the number of complete subgraphs of G. A real root of C(G, x) is called a clique root of the graph G.

Introducing subclasses of basic chordal graphs [PDF]

open access: yes
Basic chordal graphs arose when comparing clique trees of chordal graphs and compatible trees of dually chordal graphs. They were defined as those chordal graphs whose clique trees are exactly the compatible trees of its clique graph.

A decomposition theorem for chordal graphs and its applications

open access: yes, 2009
We introduce a special decomposition, the so-called split-minors, of the reduced clique graphs of chordal graphs. Using this notion, we characterize asteroidal sets in chordal graphs and clique trees with minimum number of ...

A Note on Path Domination

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2016
We study domination between different types of walks connecting two non-adjacent vertices u and v of a graph (shortest paths, induced paths, paths, tolled walks).
