Abstract: A queue layout of a graph consists of a linear order on the vertices and an assignment of the edges to queues, such that no two edges in a single queue are nested. The minimum number of queues needed in a queue layout of a graph is called its queue-number. We show that for each kgeq1, graphs with tree-width at most k have queue-number at most 2k1. This improves upon double exponential upper bounds due to Dujmovi'c et al. and Giacomo et al. As a consequence we obtain that these graphs have track-number at most 2O(k2). We complement these results by a construction of k-trees that have queue-number at least k+1. Already in the case k=2 this is an improvement to existing results and solves a problem of Rengarajan and Veni Madhavan, namely, that the maximal queue-number of 2-trees is equal to 3.
