Exact Algorithms for Intervalizing Coloured Graphs

In the Intervalizing Coloured Graphs problem, one must decide for a given graph G = (V, E) with a proper vertex colouring of G whether G is the subgraph of a properly coloured interval graph. For the case that the number of colors is fixed, we give an exact algorithm that uses 2O(n/logn)\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$2^{\mathcal {O}(n/\log n)}$\end{document} time. We also give an O∗(2n)\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$\mathcal {O}^{\ast }(2^{n})$\end{document} algorithm for the case that the number of colors is not fixed.
