Abstract
The Induced Disjoint Paths problem is to test whether an graph G on n vertices with k distinct pairs of vertices (si,ti) contains paths P1,…,Pk such that Pi connects si and ti for i=1,…,k, and Pi and Pj have neither common vertices nor adjacent vertices (except perhaps their ends) for 1≤i<j≤k. We present a linear-time algorithm that solves Induced Disjoint Paths and finds the corresponding paths (if they exist) on circular-arc graphs. For interval graphs, we exhibit a linear-time algorithm for the generalization of Induced Disjoint Paths where the pairs (si,ti) are not necessarily distinct. In both cases, if a representation of the graph is given, then the algorithms run in O(n+k) time.
