✦ Synopsis


We develop a constant time transposition "oracle" for the set of perfect elimination orderings of chordal graphs. Using this oracle, we can generate a Gray code of all perfect elimination orderings in constant amortized time using known results about antimatroids. Using clique trees, we show how the initialization of the algorithm can be performed in linear time. We also develop two new characterizations of perfect elimination orderings: one in terms of chordless paths, and the other in terms of minimal u-v separators.

Let G = (V,E) be a finite undirected connected graph. We show that there is a common perfect elimination ordering of all powers of G which represent chordal graphs. Consequently, if G and all of its powers are chordal then all these graphs admit a common perfect elimination ordering. Such an orderin

A graph is chordal or triangulated if it has no chordless cycle with four or more vertices. Chordal graphs are well known for their combinatorial and algorithmic properties. Here we introduce a generalization of chordal graphs, namely CSGk graphs. Informally, a CSG' graph is a complete graph, and fo

The interval number of a (simple, undirected) graph G is the least positive integer t such that G is the intersection graph of sets, each of which is the union of t real intervals. A chordal (or triangulated) graph is one with no induced cycles on 4 or more vertices. If G is chordal and has maximum
