Abstract
Consider a graph G which belongs to a graph class C. We are interested in connecting a node w∉V(G) to G by a single edge uw where u∈V(G); we call such an edge a tail. As the graph resulting from G after the addition of the tail, denoted G+uw, need not belong to the class C, we want to compute the number of non-edges of G in a minimum C-completion of G+uw, i.e., the minimum number of non-edges (excluding the tail uw) to be added to G+uw so that the resulting graph belongs to C. In this paper, we study this problem for the classes of split, quasi-threshold, threshold and P4-sparse graphs and we present linear-time algorithms by exploiting the structure of split graphs and the tree representation of quasi-threshold, threshold and P4-sparse graphs.
