Intervalizing colored graphs is NP-complete for caterpilars with hair length 2

The problem of Intervalizing Colored Graphs has received a lot of attention due to their use as a model for DNA physical mapping with ambiguous data. If k is the number of colors, the problem is known to be NP-Complete for general graphs for kgeq 4 and has polynomial time algorithms for k=2 and k=3....
