Abstract

Let M = (mij) be a symmetric matrix of order n and let G be the graph with vertex set {1, . . ., n} such that distinct vertices i and j are adjacent if and only if mij 6= 0. We introduce a dynamic programming algorithm that finds a diagonal matrix that is congruent to M. If G is given with a tree decomposition T of width k, then this can be done in time O(k|T | + k2n), where |T | denotes the number of nodes in T .
