Independent sets in edge-clique graphs II

Abstract

We show that edge-clique graphs of cocktail party graphs have unbounded rankwidth. This, and other observations lead us to conjecture that the edge-clique cover problem is NP-complete for cographs. We show that the independent set problem on edge-clique graphs of cographs. We show that the independent set problem on edge-clique graphs of graphs without odd wheels remains NP-complete. We present a PTAS for planar graphs and show that the problem is polynomial for planar graphs without triangle separators.
