The homogeneous set sandwich problem

The graph sandwich problem for property Φ is defined as follows: Given two graphs G 1 = ( V, E 1) and G 2 = ( V, E 2) such that E 1 ⊆ E 2, is there a graph G = ( V, E) such that E 1 ⊆ E ⊆ E 2 which satisfies property Φ? We present a polynomialtime algorithm for solving the graph sandwich problem, wh...

Zusammenfassung:The graph sandwich problem for property Φ is defined as follows: Given two graphs G 1 = ( V, E 1) and G 2 = ( V, E 2) such that E 1 ⊆ E 2, is there a graph G = ( V, E) such that E 1 ⊆ E ⊆ E 2 which satisfies property Φ? We present a polynomialtime algorithm for solving the graph sandwich problem, when property Φ is “to contain a homogeneous set”. The algorithm presented also provides the graph G and a homogeneous set in G in case it exists.
