Abstract

Let be a class of 0/1-matrices. A 0/1/ 茂戮驴-matrix Awhere the 茂戮驴s induce a submatrix is a probe matrixof if the 茂戮驴s in Acan be replaced by 0s and 1s such that Abecomes a member of . We show that for being the class of totally balanced matrices, it can be decided in polynomial time whether Ais a probe totally balanced matrix. On our route toward proving this main result, we also prove that so-called partitioned probe strongly chordal graphs and partitioned probe chordal bipartite graphs can be recognized in polynomial time.
