Cliques

The Clique problem is finding the subsets of vertices all adjacent to each other. The maximum clique is the largest complete subgraph with every vertex connected by an edge. Cliques are studied in social networks, bioinformatics, and computational chemistry.

Expert Solution
Step 1 Answer 1 and 2

Describe the brute force algorithm to find the maximum clique.

The brute force algorithm to find the maximum clique is to enumerate all possible subsets of vertices and check whether they form a clique. If they do, then compare the size of the clique to the current maximum clique, If size of clique is greater then the maximum clique, set maximum clique to size of clique.
