We determine the exact treewidth of the line graph of the complete graph. By extending these techniques, we determine the exact treewidth of the line graph of a regular complete multipartite graph. For an arbitrary complete multipartite graph, we determine the treewidth of the line graph up to a lower order term.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2014-08-01T04:09:12.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C75", "05C76" ], "keywords": [ "line graph", "exact treewidth", "regular complete multipartite graph", "complete graph", "arbitrary complete multipartite graph" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 25, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1210.8205H" } } }
