Consider an undirected graph G = (V, E). An independent set is a subset I CV such that for any vertices i, j e I, there is no edge between i and j in E. A set i is a maximal independent set if no additional vertices of V can be added to I without violating its independence. Note, however, that a maximal independent sent is not necessarily the largest independent set in G. Let a(G) denote the size of the largest maximal independent set in G.
