A necessary condition for EPT graphs and a new family of minimal forbidden subgraphs

An undirected graph G is called an EPT graph if it is the edge intersection graph of a family of paths in a tree. In this paper we de ne the concept of satellite of a clique and we give a necessary condition to be an EPT graph based on satellites of cliques. We characterize the minimal graphs which...
