Permutation graph

Permutation graph

In areas of mathematics influenced by graph theory, a permutation graph is the intersection graph of a family of line segments that connect two parallel lines in the Euclidean plane. Equivalently, given a permutation (σ1,σ2,σ3,...) of the numbers 1,2,3,..."n", a permutation graph has a vertex for each number 1,2,3,..."n" and an edge between any two numbers that are in reversed order in the permutation.

Definition and characterization

* A graph "G" is a permutation graph if and only if "G" is a circle graph that admits an "equator," i.e., an additional chord that intersects every other chord. [.
