A split graph is a graph whose vertex set can be partitioned into a clique and an independent set. The word-representability of split graphs was studied in a series of papers in the literature, and the class of word-representable split graphs was characterized through semi-transitive orientation. Nonetheless, the representation number of this class of graphs is still not known. In general, determining the representation number of a word-representable graph is an NP-complete problem. In this work, through an algorithmic procedure, we show that the representation number of the class of word-representable split graphs is at most three. Further, we characterize the class of word-representable split graphs as well as the class of split comparability graphs which have representation number exactly three.

  1. On the Conjecture of the Representation Number of Bipartite Graphs

    math.CO 2025-06 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Every bipartite graph is (1+ceil(m/2))-representable, improving to ceil(m/2) when the smaller part has odd size, settling the Glen et al. conjecture except for equal-even bipartitions.
