Reconstruction of complete interval tournaments. II

Let $a, \ b \ (b \geq a)$ and $n \ (n \geq 2)$ be nonnegative integers and let $\mathcal{T}(a,b,n)$ be the set of such generalised tournaments, in which every pair of distinct players is connected at most with $b$, and at least with $a$ arcs. In \cite{Ivanyi2009} we gave a necessary and sufficient condition to decide whether a given sequence of nonnegative integers $D = (d_1, d_2,..., d_n)$ can be realized as the out-degree sequence of a $T \in \mathcal{T}(a,b,n)$. Extending the results of \cite{Ivanyi2009} we show that for any sequence of nonnegative integers $D$ there exist $f$ and $g$ such that some element $T \in \mathcal{T}(g,f,n)$ has $D$ as its out-degree sequence, and for any $(a,b,n)$-tournament $T'$ with the same out-degree sequence $D$ hold $a\leq g$ and $b\geq f$. We propose a $Θ(n)$ algorithm to determine $f$ and $g$ and an $O(d_n n^2)$ algorithm to construct a corresponding tournament $T$.
