Abstract
We give the first efficient parallel algorithms for recognizing chorda l graphs, finding a maximum clique and a maximum independent set in a chordal graph, finding an optimal coloring of a chordal graph, finding a breadth-first search tree and a depth-first search tree of a chorda l graph, recognizing interval graphs, and testing interval graphs for isomorphism. The key to our results is an efficient parallel algorithm for finding a perfect elimination ordering.
