Vertex-weighted maximum clique problem (VWMCP)

Definition 1: Vertex-weighted maximum clique problem

  1. Given a graph \(G\) and a vertex-weight vector \(\vet{w}\), the vertex-weighted maximum clique problem (VWMCP) asks to find a clique \(K\) of \(G\) with maximum total vertex weight \(w(K)\).

  2. Given a graph \(G\) and an edge-weight vector \(\vet{r}\), the edge-weighted maximum clique problem (EWMCP) asks to find a clique \(K\) of \(G\) with maximum total edge weight \(r(K)\).
