The mutual-visibility problem in a graph \(G\) asks for the cardinality of a largest set of vertices \(X \subseteq V (G)\) so that for any two vertices \(x, y \in X\) there is a shortest \(x, y\)-path whose internal vertices are all not in \(X\). Based on the extension of the visibility property of vertices that are in and/or outside \(X\), variations of this problem exist. It is known that solving the mutual-visibility problem in all its variations is NP-complete. In contrast, exact formulas have been shown for special graph classes like paths, cycles, blocks, cographs, and for the Cartesian product of some simple graphs like paths, cliques, and cycles. In this paper, the authors study the (variations of) mutual-visibility problem in the context of distance-hereditary graphs. In particular, they introduce the direct canonical decomposition of a graph as a tool for defining useful structural properties of the graphs studied, and then show that such properties allow one to devise a linear-time algorithm for solving all the variants of the mutual-visibility problem for distance-hereditary graphs. Finally, the authors prove that a recently posed conjecture about the total mutual-visibility number of distance-hereditary graphs holds.
