Abstract

We present a parallel algorithm for recognizing cographs and constructing their cotrees. The algorithm takes O(log2n) time with O(n+m) processors on a CRCW PRAM, where n and m are the number of vertices and edges of the graph. Using cotree representation, we obtain a parallel algorithm for the permutation representation problem for cographs using O(log n) time with O(n) processors. We also present a parallel algorithm for the depthfirst spanning tree problem for permutation graphs (a class properly contains cographs) which takes O(log2n) time with O(n) processors.
