A graph G is a circular-arc graph if it is the intersection graph of a set of arcs on a circle. That is, there is one arc for each vertex of G, and two vertices are adjacent in G if the corresponding arcs intersect. We give a linear time bound for recognizing this class of graphs. When G is a member of the class, the algorithm gives a certificate in the form of a set of arcs that realize it.
