Abstract: Hung and Chang showed that for all k>=1 an interval graph has a path cover of size at most k if and only if its scattering number is at most k. They also showed that an interval graph has a Hamilton cycle if and only if its scattering number is at most 0. We complete this characterization by proving that for all k<=-1 an interval graph is -(k+1)-Hamilton-connected if and only if its scattering number is at most k. We also give an O(m+n) time algorithm for computing the scattering number of an interval graph with n vertices an m edges, which improves the O(n^4) time bound of Kratsch, Kloks and M"uller. As a consequence of our two results the maximum k for which an interval graph is k-Hamilton-connected can be computed in O(m+n) time.
