A graph
$$G = (V,E)$$
is a double-threshold graph if there exist a vertex-weight function
$$w :V \rightarrow \mathbb {R}$$
and two real numbers
$$\mathtt {lb}, \mathtt {ub}\in \mathbb {R}$$
such that
$$uv \in E$$
if and only if
$$\mathtt {lb}\le \mathtt {w}(u) + \mathtt {w}(v) \le \mathtt {ub}$$
. In the literature, those graphs are studied also as the pairwise compatibility graphs that have stars as their underlying trees. We give a new characterization of double-threshold graphs that relates them to bipartite permutation graphs. Using the new characterization, we present a linear-time algorithm for recognizing double-threshold graphs. Prior to our work, the fastest known algorithm by Xiao and Nagamochi [Algorithmica 2020] ran in
$$O(n^{3} m)$$
time, where n and m are the numbers of vertices and edges, respectively. |
