Interval Deletion is Fixed-Parameter Tractable

Abstract

We study the minimum interval deletion problem, which asks for the removal of a set of at most k vertices to make a graph of n vertices into an interval graph. We present a parameterized algorithm of runtime 10k · nO(1) for this problem, that is, we show the problem is fixed-parameter tractable.
