Summary: A characterization of interval \(P\)-matrices is given. The result implies that a symmetric interval matrix is a \(P\)-matrix if and only if it is positive definite (although nonsymmetric matrices may be involved). As a consequence it is proved that the problem of checking whether a symmetric interval matrix is a \(P\)-matrix is NP-hard.
