Geodetic convexity parameters for \((q, q - 4)\)-graphs. (English) Zbl 1464.05333

Summary: Following a suggestion of V. Campos et al. [ibid. 192, 28–39 (2015; Zbl 1319.05077)] we show that, within the geodetic convexity, the interval number, the convexity number, the Carathéodory number, and the Radon number can be computed in polynomial time for \((q, q - 4)\)-graphs.
