Popis: The problem of finding a minimum clique (with respect to the total weight of its vertices and edges) of fixed size in a complete undirected weighted graph is considered along with some of its important subclasses. Approximability issues are analyzed. The inapproximability of the problem is proved for the general case. A 2-approximation efficient algorithm with time complexity O(n 2 ) is suggested for the cases when vertex weights are nonnegative and edge weights either satisfy the triangle inequality or are squared pairwise distances for some point configuration of Euclidean space. Keywords: complete undirected graph, clique of fixed size, minimum weight of vertices and edges, subset search, approximability, polynomial time approximation algorithm, approximation guarantee, time complexity.
