Abstract
Inspired by connections described in a recent paper by Mark L Lewis between the common divisor graph ΓX and the prime vertex graph ΔX for a set X of positive integers we define the bipartite divisor graph BX and show that many of these connections flow naturally from properties of BX In particular we establish links between parameters of these three graphs such as number and diameter of components and we characterise bipartite graphs that can arise as BX for some X Also we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of subconfigurations of BX for one of ΓX or ΔX to contain a complete subgraph of size 3 or 4
