Ferrers dimension of grid intersection graphs

We investigate the Ferrers dimension of classes of grid intersection graphs and show properties and characterizations. In particular, we show that (1) the grid intersection graphs form a proper subclass of the class of bipartite graphs of Ferrers dimension 4, (2) segment-ray graphs have a forbidden...

Zusammenfassung:We investigate the Ferrers dimension of classes of grid intersection graphs and show properties and characterizations. In particular, we show that (1) the grid intersection graphs form a proper subclass of the class of bipartite graphs of Ferrers dimension 4, (2) segment-ray graphs have a forbidden submatrix characterization, and (3) a bipartite graph is a unit grid intersection graph if and only if it is the intersection of two bipartite permutation graphs.
