A connected graph G is a tree-clique graph if there exists a spanning tree T (a compatible tree) such that every clique of G is a subtree of T. When Tis a path the connected graph G is a proper interval graph which is usually defined as intersection graph of a family of closed intervals of the real

β¦ Synopsis
The edge clique graph of a graph H is the one having the edge set of H as vertex set, two vertices being adjacent if and only if the corresponding edges belong to a common complete subgraph of H . We characterize the graph classes {edge clique graphs} β© {interval graphs} as well as {edge clique graphs} β© {probe interval graphs}, which leads to polynomial time recognition algorithms for them. This work generalizes corresponding results in [M.R. Cerioli, J.L. Szwarcfiter, Edge clique graphs and some classes of chordal graphs, Discrete Math. 242 (2002) 31-39].

This paper explores the intimate connection between finite interval graphs and interval orders. Special attention is given to the family of interval orders that agree with, or provide representations of, an interval graph. Two characterizations (one by P. Hanlon) of interval graphs with essentially
Let be the induced-minor relation. It is shown that, for every t, all chordal graphs of clique number at most t are well-quasi-ordered by . On the other hand, if the bound on clique number is dropped, even the class of interval graphs is not well-quasi-ordered by .
## Abstract Given a set __F__ of digraphs, we say a graph __G__ is a __F__β__graph__ (resp., __F__\*β__graph__) if it has an orientation (resp., acyclic orientation) that has no induced subdigraphs isomorphic to any of the digraphs in __F__. It is proved that all the classes of graphs mentioned in
We consider models for random interval graphs that are based on stochastic service systems, with vertices corresponding to customers and edges corresponding to pairs of customers that are in the system simultaneously. The number N of vertices in a connected component thus corresponds to the number o
## Abstract An interval graph is said to be extremal if it achieves, among all interval graphs having the same number of vertices and the same clique number, the maximum possible number of edges. We give an intrinsic characterization of extremal interval graphs and derive recurrence relations for t
