Clique graph representations of ptolemaic graphs
A graph is ptolemaic if and only if it is both chordal and distance-hereditary. Thus, a ptolemaic graph G has two kinds of intersection graph representations: one from being chordal, and the other from being distance-hereditary. The first of these, called a clique tree representation, is easily generated from the clique graph of G (the intersection graph of the maximal complete subgraphs of G). The second intersection graph representation can also be generated from the clique graph, as a very special...
