description In the paper such subclass of string graphs as intersection graphs of closed polygonal chains (class of CPC-graphs) was considered, necessary conditions for belonging to that class, forbidden subgraphs and operations with graphs which preserve belonging to the CPC class were found. Considered question about the existence of k-regular CPC-graphs, particularly, pairs (k, n), such that there exists k-regular CPC-graph on n vertexes were found, proved that there are infinitely many k-regular CPC-graphs for any k ∈ N, estimations for the number of k, such that k-regular graph on n vertexes exists, were given. Algorithmic questions in the class of CPC-graphs were investigated. It was proved that independent and dominating set problems, coloring problem and the problem about maximal cycle are NP-hard in the class of CPC-graphs, and problem of recognition of the CPC-graphs belongs to the PSPACE class.
