2. For a given graph G, we say that H is a clique if H is a complete subgraph of Design an algorithm such that if given a graph G and an integer k as input, determines whether or not G has a clique with k vertices in polynomial time. (Hint: Try to first find a polynomial time algorithm for a different problem and reduce the clique problem to that problem).

1) Consider the clique problem: given a graph G (V, E) and a positive integer k, determine whether the graph contains a clique of size k, i.e., a set of k vertices S of V such that each pair of vertices of S are neighbours to each other. Design an exhaustive-search algorithm for this problem. Compute also the time complexity of your algorithm.

(a) Given a graph G = (V, E) and a number k (1 ≤ k ≤ n), the CLIQUE problem asks us whether there is a set of k vertices in G that are all connected to one another. That is, each vertex in the ”clique” is connected to the other k − 1 vertices in the clique; this set of vertices is referred to as a ”k-clique.” Show that this problem is in class NP (verifiable in polynomial time)...

Definition: Given a Graph \(\mathrm{G}=(\mathrm{V}, \mathrm{E})\), define the complement graph of \(\mathrm{G}, \overline{\boldsymbol{G}}\), to be \(\bar{G}=(\mathrm{V}, E)\) where \(E\) is the complement set of edges. That is \((\mathrm{v}, \mathrm{w})\) is in \(E\) if and only if \((\mathrm{v}, \mathrm{w}) \notin \mathrm{E}\) Theorem: Given \(\mathrm{G}\), the complement graph of \(\mathrm{G}, \bar{G}\) can be constructed in polynomial time. Proof: To construct \(G\), construct a copy of \(\mathrm{V}\) (linear time) and then construct \(E\) by a) constructing all possible edges of between vertices in...
