Finding Cliques of a Graph using Prime Numbers

In this paper we modify an algorithm for updating a maximal clique enumeration after an edge insertion to provide an algorithm that runs in linear time with respect to the number of cliques containing one of the edge's endpoints, whereas existing algorithms take quadratic time.

In this article we use the modular decomposition technique for exact solving the weighted maximum clique problem. Our algorithm takes the modular decomposition tree from the paper of Tedder et. al. and finds solution recursively. Also, we propose algorithms to construct graphs with modules. We show some interesting results, comparing our solution with Ostergard's algorithm on DIMACS benchmarks and on generated graphs

We present a parallel k-clique listing algorithm with improved work bounds (for the same depth) in sparse graphs with low degeneracy or arboricity. We achieve this by introducing and analyzing a new pruning criterion for a backtracking search. Our algorithm has better asymptotic performance, especially for larger cliques (when k is not constant), where we avoid the straightforwardly exponential runtime growth with respect to the clique size. In particular, for cliques that ar...

We study the basic properties of a prime sum graph, which is a simple graph defined on $\mathbb N$ where two vertices are adjacent if and only if their sum is a prime number. Further, we investigate some specific structures that appear inside a prime sum graph as an induced subgraph.

The maximum edge-weight clique problem is to find a clique whose sum of edge-weight is the maximum for a given edge-weighted undirected graph. The problem is NP-hard and some branch-and-bound algorithms have been proposed. In this paper, we propose a new exact algorithm based on branch-and-bound. It assigns edge-weights to vertices and calculates upper bounds using vertex coloring. By some computational experiments, we confirmed our algorithm is faster than previous algorithm...

Maximal clique enumeration (MCE) is a fundamental problem in graph theory and is used in many applications, such as social network analysis, bioinformatics, intelligent agent systems, cyber security, etc. Most existing MCE algorithms focus on improving the efficiency rather than reducing the output size. The output unfortunately could consist of a large number of maximal cliques. In this paper, we study how to report a summary of less overlapping maximal cliques. The problem ...

Since its first use by Euler on the problem of the seven bridges of K\"onigsberg, graph theory has shown excellent abilities in solving and unveiling the properties of multiple discrete optimization problems. The study of the structure of some integer programs reveals equivalence with graph theory problems making a large body of the literature readily available for solving and characterizing the complexity of these problems. This tutorial presents a framework for utilizing a ...

This work is concerned with the prime factor decomposition (PFD) of strong product graphs. A new quasi-linear time algorithm for the PFD with respect to the strong product for arbitrary, finite, connected, undirected graphs is derived. Moreover, since most graphs are prime although they can have a product-like structure, also known as approximate graph products, the practical application of the well-known "classical" prime factorization algorithm is strictly limited. This new...

The first study related to this paper was on the notion of primitive holes. This paper reports on research in respect of clique parameters and related properties thereof within Jaco-type graphs.
