In graph theory, an interval graph is an undirected graph formed from a set of intervals on the real line,with a vertex for each interval and an edge between vertices whose intervals intersect. It is the intersection graph of the intervals. Interval graphs are chordal graphs and perfect graphs. They can be recognized in linear time, and an optimal graph coloring or maximum clique in these graphs can be found in linear time. The interval graphs include all proper interval graphs, graphs defined in the same way from a set of unit intervals.
