Abstract

Motivated by its relation to the length of cutting plane proofs for the Maximum Biclique problem, we consider the following communication game on a given graph G, known to both players. Let K be the maximal number of vertices in a complete bipartite subgraph of G, which is not necessarily an induced subgraph if G is not bipartite. Alice gets a set A of vertices, and Bob gets a disjoint set B of vertices such that |A|+|B|>K. The goal is to find a nonedge of G between A and B. We show that O(\log n) bits of communication are enough for every n-vertex graph.<br />10 pages. Theorem 1 in the previous version holds only for bipartite graphs, the non-bipartite case remains open. I now separate the bipartite and non-bipartite cases (by switching from independent sets to cliques, hence a new title). Some new open problems as well as references are added
