Abstract: Algorithmic Graph Theory and Perfect Graphs, first published in 1980, has become the classic introduction to the field. This new Annals edition continues to convey the message that intersection graph models are a necessary and important tool for solving real-world problems. It remains a stepping stone from which the reader may embark on one of many fascinating research trails. The past twenty years have been an amazingly fruitful period of research in algorithmic graph theory and structured families of graphs. Especially important have been the theory and applications of new intersection graph models such as generalizations of permutation graphs and interval graphs. These have lead to new families of perfect graphs and many algorithmic results. These are surveyed in the new Epilogue chapter in this second edition. New edition of the "Classic" book on the topic Wonderful introduction to a rich research area Leading author in the field of algorithmic graph theory Beautifully written for the new mathematician or computer scientist Comprehensive treatment
TL;DR: The main topics of this article are split graphs, their degree sequences, and the place of these "split partitions" at the top of the partially ordered set of graphic partitions.
Abstract: The main topics of this article are split graphs, their degree sequences, and the place of these "split partitions" at the top of the partially ordered set of graphic partitions. One application is that threshold covered partitions are unigraphic.
TL;DR: A graph theoretic scheme to link overlapping clusters is proposed in terms of the maximal complete subgraph (MCS) of a threshold graph, which is defined for a set of overlapping clusters by a given threshold value.
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that not every threshold graph is optimal in this sense, where K and S indicate complete and edgeless graphs, K 1,r indicates a star on r + 1 vertices, and ∪ indicates disjoint union, and + indicates complete disjunctive join.
