Formulas in connection with parameters related to convexity of paths on three vertices: caterpillars and unit interval graphs

We present formulas to compute the P3-geodetic number, the P3-hull number and the percolation time for a caterpillar, in terms of certain sequences associated with it. In addition, we find a connection between the percolation time of a unit interval graph and a parameter involving the diameter of a unit interval graph related to it. Finally, we present a hereditary graph class, defined by forbidden induced subgraphs, such that its percolation time is equal to one.
