dc.description.abstractWe provide an algorithm with constant running time that given a weighted tournament T, distinguishes with high probability of success between the cases that T can be represented by a Bradley-Terry model, or cannot even be approximated by one. The same algorithm tests whether the corresponding Markov chain is reversible.
