Chordal graphs


Chordal graph : Every cycle of four or more vertices has a chord in it,
i.e. there is an edge between two non consecutive vertices of the cycle.
Also called rigid circuit graphs, Perfect Elimination Graphs,
Triangulated Graphs, monotone transitive graphs.

Why Study a Special Graph Class?

Reasons



The Graph Class arises from applications
The graph class posses some interesting structures that
helps solving certain hard but important problems
restricted to this class
some interesting meaningful theory can be developed
in this class.
All of these are true for chordal Graphs.
Hence study Chordal Graphs.

Characterizing Property: Minimal separators
are cliques ( Dirac 1961)
Characterizing Property: Every minimal a-b vertex
separator is a clique ( Complete Subgraph)
Minimal a-b Separator: S  V is a minimal vertex
separator if a and b lie in different components of
G-S and no proper subset of S has this property.
8
Lemma 1


A vertex x of G is called simplicial if its adjacency
set Adj(x) is a clique
(not necessarily maximal)
Lemma 1[Dirac 1961]: Each chordal graph has a
simplicial vertex and if G is not a clique it has two
non adjacent simplicial vertices.
9
Proof of Lemma 1


If G is a clique, done.
If not, assume that G has two non-adjacent nodes a
and b and that the lemma is true to all graphs with
fewer vertices than G. Let S be a minimal vertex
separator for a and b.
Let Ga and Gb be the
connected components
of a and b respectively.
1
0
Proof of Lemma 1 (Cont.)
S is a clique – if not, then there exists x and y
such that there is no edge between them, and
because S is minimal vertex separator there is
a cycle <a,…,x,…,b,…,y,…,a>. It is easy to show
that there exist a minimal cycle with length no
less then 4 with no
chords in it,
contradiction.

1
1
Proof of Lemma 1 (Cont.)
S is a clique. GA+S is smaller than G therefore
by induction the lemma holds, i.e. GA+S is a
clique or has two non adjacent simplicial
vertices, one of each must be in GA. Any
simplicial vertex in GA is a simplicial vertex in G
because all elements of Adj(A) are inside GA+S.
Thus from GA and GB we get two simplicial
vertices in G.

Gross 1965)



vertex. If G is not complete, then it has two non-adjacent
simplicial vertices. Simplicial: G[NG(v)] is complete

adjacent vertices.

Perfect Vertex Elimination

Let G=(V,E) be an undirected graph and let
σ=[v1,v2,…,vn] be an ordering of the vertices. We say
that σ is a perfect vertex elimination scheme if for
each i: Xi = { vj in Adj(vi) | j>I } is complete.

Let T’ be T with v removed. T’ is a Clique- Tree.
By assumption G’ =(V\{v},E’) is chordal.
By part 3 of Theorem 7, there exists σ’, a Perfect
Elimination Order for G’.

PEO is a Key in designing algorithms and
obtaining structural properties

The following classical Graph Optimization problems are
NP-Hard for general Graphs
Finding



(G) :clique number (the size of maximum size clique )
(G): Chromatic number ( minimum number of colors needed in a
proper coloring of G)
(G): independence number( maximum size of an independent set)
(G): clique covering number ( minimum number of cliques
needed to cover V(G) )
All these four problems can be solved in linear time in
Chordal Graphs given a PEO as part of input
29
Polynomial Algorithms for chordal Graphs:
Clique Number





Given a PEO of a Chordal Graph G, maximum
size clique can be found as follows:
Let (v1,v2,…,vn) be a PEO of G.
Define L(i)= maximum j, j > i such that vivj
E(G). F[i]=minimum j j >I such vivj isan edge.
Let Max {L[i]-F[i]+1}=k=L[j]-F[j]+1.
Then k= (G) and C={vj,vj+1,…,v_{j+k-1}} is a
maximum size clique.
30
Maximum Clique: Illustration
L[1]=3,L[2]=4,L[3]=5,L[4]=5,L[5]=5.
Max{L[i]-i+1}=3=L[1]-1+1=L[2]-2+1=L[3]-3+1.
Maximum size cliques are {1,2,3},{2,3,4}, {3,4,5}

vertex with the smallest color not used among its successors



Complexity = Polynomial (given that PEO is already known)

33
Why optimal?
Clearly, (G) (G)
 Let (v1,v2,…,vn) be PEO. So (vn,…,v2,v1)
Is the reverse PEO. Now coloredNbr(vi)=|{vj|
vivj is an edge and j >i}| ≤ (G)
So (G) = (G) and hence Greedy algorithm is
optimal.

Greedy algorithm

Scan the vertices in the order of PEO, and for each vi,
add vi to I if none of its predecessor has been added to I

Clique cover



Xi={vj | vivj and j >i}
y1=v1; yi is the first vertex in  which follows yi-1
and which is not in X1 X2  …  Xi-1; all
vertices following yt are in X1  X2  …  Xt.
Hence V={y1,y2,…yt}  X1  X2 …  Xt.
Theorem: {y1,y2,…yt} is a maximum independent
set and the collection of sets Yi={yi}  Xi, 1≤ i ≤t
comprises a minimum clique cover of G.
37
Proof

{y1,y2,…yt} is an independent set as yiyj E(G)
implies yj  Xi which is a contradiction. So (G)
 t. As Yi, 1 ≤ i≤ t, is a clique cover of G. So
(G)  t. Hence (G) =t and the minimum clique
cover contains at least t cliques. Hence the
theorem.
38
Perfect Elimination Order (PEO)
•
An ordered sequence of all vertices {V1, V2,…, Vn}
•
Successor (Vi) = {Vj: j>i and (i,j) ε E}
•
•
Predecessor (Vi) = {Vj : i>j and (i,j) ε E}
Sequence of vertices such that for each vertex Vi, successors
of Vi form a clique
•
A graph is chordal if and only if it has a Perfect Elimination
Order (PEO) [Fulkerson 1965]
39
Simplicial Vertex

A vertex whose all neighbors form a clique

Every chordal graph has at least one simplical vertex

The first vertex in PEO is simplicial

If you remove the simplicial vertex, then the graph induced by
remaining nodes is also a chordal graph (hence must have a
simplicial vertex of its own)
40
Simple method to find PEO


Given G = (V, E)
For (i=1 to N) {
Vi = Simplicial vertex (G);
G = Graph induced by vertex set (V-Vi);
}
What if no simplicial vertex exists at some point?
Complexity = O(N4)
41
Finding a PEO (Maximum Cardinality
Method)

Rose and Tarjan [Rose 1975]

Cardinality Number = Number of neighbors picked up

Step1: Pick the node whose maximum number of neighbors have
already been chosen

Reverse the order

Step 2: In the end, verify the ordering obtained is indeed PEO

43
Observations
1.
2.
Except for the first node, any node being picked
up has at least one neighbor which has already
been picked
Set of picked nodes always form a connected
graph
44
Proof of Correctness

If a PEO does not exist, then algorithm does not
generate a PEO

If the PEO exists, then algorithm outputs some
PEO
45
Proof of Correctness (Part 2)
Let {V1, V2, V3,…,Vi, …, Vj,…, Vk,…,Vn} be the ordering generated.
Let Vi is not in sequence. Then Vj and Vk be the two successors of Vi that
are not connected.
Case 1:
Then Vj and Vk are parts of two graphs which are connected only through
Vi
The order in which the nodes were picked is:
{Vn, …, Vk, …., Vj,…, Vi,…,V3, V2, V1}
Then we claim that label sequence must have been different
46
Proof (Contd.)




Case 2:
Consider the path from k to j on which the nodes
were picked up.
All such nodes should be connected to i except
those nodes, which are directly connected to j.
Let m be such a vertex on that path. m must have
some vertices which are not connected to i.
47
Proof (contd.)



Let w be such a vertex. Therefore w must be
connected to k. (through a path not involving i).
If i is not connected to w, then we have a non
chordal cycle i-k-w-m-j-i.
i must be connected to w as well. Therefore there is
no way that m can be picked before I since i is
connected to one extra node than m (Vk)
48
Complexity Analysis (Step 2)
Check if the generated ordering is perfect
Trivial algorithm:
Number of vertices whose successors have to be checked: N
Time complexity to check if all the successors of a particular node
are connected: NC2 = N2
Total complexity = N3
49
Step 2: Efficient Implementation

Efficient Way:

Given ordering: {V1, V2, V3, …, Vi, …, Vj,…, Vk,…,Vn}
1. for i = 1 to n do
2.
if Vi has successors
3.
Let u be the first successor of Vi
4.
For all w ∈ Successor (Vi), w ≠u
5.
Add (u, w) to TEST
6. Test whether all vertex-pairs in TEST are adjacent.
50
Why?

If the algorithm detects ordering as non-perfect, then ordering must be non-
perfect

If the algorithm detects ordering as PEO, then ordering cannot be imperfect (By
contradiction)

complexity if implemented carefully: O ( N + E)


Maximum size of set TEST can be O(E)
Instead of O (N3)
51
Implementation of step 1 (generating
perfect ordering)

Trivial Method:

Maintain a heap of cardinality numbers
Complexity of each for loop:
Find the maximum cardinality node and removing it: O(lg N)
Number of updates for each node picked: N
modifying the cardinality number and rearranging the heap: N lg N
Total Complexity = N* (lg N + N lg N) = N2 lg N
Can also be shown as E lg N
52
Efficient Implementation (Step 1)

With complexity O( N + E)

For each node, maintain list of neighbors. (Already given in this
format)

Maintain linked list of vertices (in order of cardinality number)

For each node, maintain its location in the linked list

Picking the vertex with max. cardinality number = O(1)

Finding all the neighbors and updating their cardinality number and
their location in linked list = O(E)
53
Another definition for chordal graphs
Intersection Graph: A graph that represents the intersection of sets

Subtree Graph:

Break a tree into multiple subtrees (overlapping)

Now make a graph whose each vertex represents one subtree. An edge between two
vertices if they have a common vertex (between the subtrees they represent)

The graph thus obtained is known as Subtree Graph
As [Gavril 1974] showed, the subtree graphs are exactly the chordal graphs. So a
chordal graph can be represented as an intersection graph of subtrees.
