image-interval-filament graphs Original Research Article

Gavril [F. Gavril, Maximum weight independent sets and cliques in intersection graphs of filaments, Inform. Process. Lett. 73 (2000) 181–188] defined two new families of intersection graphs: the interval-filament graphs and the subtree-filament graphs. The complements of interval-filament graphs are the cointerval mixed graphs and the complements of subtree-filament graphs are the cochordal mixed graphs. The family of interval-filament graphs contains the families of cocomparability, polygon-circle, circle and chordal graphs.
