A graph <i>G</i> is <i>k</i>-11-representable if it can be represented by a word <i>w</i> such that for any edge (resp., non-edge) <i>xy</i> in <i>G</i> the subsequence of <i>w</i> formed by <i>x</i> and <i>y</i> contains at most <i>k</i> (resp., at least <span>(k+1)</span>) pairs of consecutive equal letters. A remarkable result of Cheon at al. is that <i>any</i> graph is 2-11-representable, while it is unknown whether every graph is 1-11-representable. Cheon et al. showed that the class of 1-11-representable graphs is strictly larger than that of word-representable graphs, and they introduced a useful toolbox to study 1-11-representable graphs. In this paper, we introduce new tools for studying 1-11-representation of graphs.
