Abstract: | For a set S of intervals, the clique-interva
I
S
is defined as the interval obtained from the intersection of all the intervals in S , and the clique-width quantity w
S
is defined as the length of I
S
. Given a set S of intervals, it is straightforward to compute its clique-interval and clique-width. In this paper we study the problem
of partitioning a set of intervals in order to maximize the sum of the clique-widths of the partitions. We present an O(n log n) time algorithm for the balanced bipartitioning problem, and an O(k n
2
) time algorithm for the k -way unbalanced partitioning problem.
