Abstract

AbstractA circle diagram consists of a circle C and a set of n chords. This diagram defines a graph with n vertices where each vertex corresponds to a chord, and two vertices are adjacent if their corresponding chords intersect in C. A graph G is called a circle graph if it is defined by some circle diagram. An algorithm which requires O(n2) steps to generate one maximum clique is presented. The algorithm can also be used to generate all maximum cliques where the number of steps need to generate each additional maximum clique is linear in its size. This compares favourably with Gavril's algorithm [4] which works in O(n3) steps.
