TLDR
In this article, the maximum number of cliques possible in a graph with n nodes is determined and bounds are obtained for the number of different sizes of clique possible in such a graph.
Abstract
A clique is a maximal complete subgraph of a graph. The maximum number of cliques possible in a graph withn nodes is determined. Also, bounds are obtained for the number of different sizes of cliques possible in such a graph.

Trees with the second largest number of maximal independent sets

TL;DR: In this article, the second largest number of maximal independent sets among all trees and forests of order n>=4 was determined, and the extremal graphs achieving these values were characterized.

Constraints on the number of maximal independent sets in graphs

TL;DR: This work proves two conjectures, suggested by P. Erdos, that the maximum number of maximal independent sets among all graphs of order n in a family Φ is o(3n/3) ifΦ is either a family of connected graphs such that the largest value of maximum degrees among all graph n in Φ are o(n) or a family that approaches infinity as n → ∞.
