A biclique is a set of vertices that induce a complete bipartite graph. A graph G is biclique-Helly when its family of maximal bicliques satisfies the Helly property. If every induced subgraph of G is also biclique-Helly, ...

A graph is balanced if its clique-matrix contains no edge–vertex incidence matrix of an odd chordless cycle as a submatrix. While a forbidden induced subgraph characterization of balanced graphs is known, there is no such ...

We initiate the study of graph classes of power-bounded clique-width, that is, graph classes for which there exist integers k and ℓ such that the kth powers of the graphs are of clique-width at most ℓ. We give sufficient ...

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 ...

Given integers m1,…,mℓ, the weighted clique graph of G is the clique graph K(G), in which there is a weight assigned to each complete set S of size mi of K(G), for each i=1,…,ℓ. This weight equals the cardinality of the ...

A new class of graphs related to perfect graphs is defined in this work: coordinated graphs. A graph G is coordinated if the cardinality of a maximum set of cliques of H with a common vertex is equal to the cardinality of ...

A well-known combinatorial theorem says that a set of n non-collinear points in the plane determines at least n distinct lines. Chen and Chvatal conjectured that this theorem extends to metric spaces, with an appropriated ...

We present formulas to compute the P3 -interval number, the P3 -hull number and the percolation time for a caterpillar, in terms of certain sequences associated with it. In addition, we find a connection between the ...
