Abstract

Graph theory provides algorithms and tools to handle models for important applications in medicine, such as drug design, diagnosis, validation of graph-theoretical methods for pattern identification in public health datasets. In this chapter we characterize weakly quasi-threshold graphs using the weakly decomposition, determine: density and stability number for weakly quasi-threshold graphs.
