Abstract

Given an arbitrary graph G=(V,E) and an interval graph H=(V,F) with E⊆F we say that H is an interval completion of G. The graph H is called a minimal interval completion of G if, for any sandwich graph H ′ = (V,F ′) with E⊆F′⊂F, H ′ is not an interval graph. In this paper we give a ${{\mathcal{O}}(nm)}$ time algorithm computing a minimal interval completion of an arbitrary graph. The output is an interval model of the completion.
