Word-Representable Graphs and Locality of Words
摘要
In this work, we investigate the relationship between k-representable graphs and graphs representable by k-local words. In particular, we show that every graph representable by a k-local word is \((k+1)\) -representable. A previous result about graphs represented by 1-local words is revisited with new insights. Moreover, we investigate both classes of graphs w.r.t. hereditary and in particular the speed as a measure. We prove that the latter ones belong to the factorial layer and that the graphs in this classes have bounded clique-width.
