Abstract

A randomized version of the MAXCLIQUE approximation algorithm by Boppana and Halldórsson is analyzed. The Boppana Halldórsson algorithm has the best performance guarantee currently known for the MAXCLIQUE problem. This paper presents a class of graphs on which the performance ratio of the randomized version of the algorithm is not better than Ω(√n) with probability greater than 1 - 1/nω(1).
