The author considers the partial real symmetric matrices \(X\) whose diagonal entries are equal to 1 and off-diagonal entries are specified only on a subset of the positions. The author gives a set of necessary conditions for \(X\) to be completable to a positive semidefinite matrix, and shows that these conditions are also sufficient if and only if the graph corresponding to the positions of the specified entries has no \(K_4\)-minor.
