Coloring intersection graphs of x-monotone curves in the plane

A class of graphs G is χ-bounded if the chromatic number of the graphs in G is bounded by some function of their clique number. We show that the class of intersection graphs of simple families of x-monotone curves in the plane intersecting a vertical line is χ-bounded. As a corollary, we show that t...
