A B2-VPG representation of a graph is an intersection representation that consists of orthogonal curves with at most 2 bends. In this paper, we show that the curves of such a representation can be partitioned into O(log n) groups that represent outer-string graphs or O(log3 n) groups that represent permutation graphs. This leads to better approximation algorithms for hereditary graph problems, such as independent set, clique and clique cover, on B2-VPG graphs.
