A graph G=(V,E) is a threshold tolerance if it is possible to associate weights and tolerances with each node of $G$ so that two nodes are adjacent exactly when the sum of their weights exceeds either one of their tolerances. Threshold tolerance graphs are a special case of the well-known class of tolerance graphs and generalize the class of threshold graphs which are also extensively studied in literature. In this note we relate the threshold tolerance graphs with other important graph classes. In particular we show that threshold tolerance graphs are a proper subclass of co-strongly chordal graphs and strictly include the class of co-interval graphs. To this purpose, we exploit the relation with another graph class, min leaf power graphs (mLPGs).
