On the chordality of a graph
Authors:Terry A. McKee  Edward R. Scheinerman
Abstract:The chordality of a graph G = (V, E) is defined as the minimum k such that we can write E = E1 ∩ … ∩ Ek with each (V, Ei) a chordal graph. We present several results bounding the value of this generalization of boxicity. Our principal result is that the chordality of a graph is at most its tree width. In particular, series-parallel graphs have chordality at most 2. Potential strengthenings of this statement fail in that there are planar graphs with chordality 3 and series-parallel graphs with boxicity 3. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
