Abstract

In this paper we give two characterisations of the class of reflexive graphs admitting distributive lattice polymorphisms and use these characterisations to address the problem of recognition: we find a polynomial time algorithm to decide if a given reflexive graph G, in which no two vertices have the same neighbourhood, admits a distributive lattice polymorphism.
