A Characterization of Signed Graphs with Generalized Perfect Elimination Orderings

Koji Nuida

Published 2007-12-26, updated 2009-02-03Version 3

An important property of chordal graphs is that these graphs are characterized by existence of perfect elimination orderings on their vertex sets. In this paper, we generalize the notion of perfect elimination orderings to signed graphs, and give a characterization for graphs admitting such orderings, together with characterizations restricted to some subclasses and further properties of those graphs.
