Abstract:

Graph Isomorphism Problem is one of the well-known problems in graph theory. Although it is not known whether it belongs to P or not, it has been shown to be solvable in polynomial and even in linear time for various graph classes. In particular, the isomorphism problem is solvable in polynomial-time for interval graphs and it is as hard as on all graphs for chordal graphs (i.e., GI-complete). Our main motivation is to identify the complexity of the isomorphism problem for geometric graph classes between these two classes. In this thesis, we focus on S_d- and T-graphs which are subclasses of H-graphs, introduced by Biro, Hujter and Tuza \cite{biro}, and prove that the S_d-graphs of bounded clique size can be solved in FPT-time, and for T-graphs of bounded clique size it is solvable in FPT-time when the number of leaves of T are bounded. The same tractability questions for S_d- and T-graphs of unbounded clique size, but bounded number of leaves are related to the unsolved problem of isomorphism of posets of bounded width. If the isomorphism for S_d-graphs can be solved in FPT-time, then it can be used to solve the isomorphism problem for posets of width d. Then, we prove that the isomorphism problem for posets of width 2 can be solved in polynomial time and show that it is not directly extendible to posets of higher widths. Moreover, we prove that the isomorphism problem for CARC-graphs of bounded degree and without a dominating triangle or edge can be solved in FPT-time.
