Let G be a line graph. Orlin determined the clique covering and clique partition numbers cc(G) and cp(G). We obtain a constructive proof of Orlin's result and in doing so we are able to completely enumerate the number of distinct minimal clique covers and partitions of G, in terms of easily calculab

## Abstract Both the line graph and the clique graph are defined as intersection graphs of certain families of complete subgraphs of a graph. We generalize this concept. By a __k__โedge of a graph we mean a complete subgraph with __k__ vertices or a clique with fewer than __k__ vertices. The __k__โ
In the paper we prove that, for a fixed k, the problem of deciding whether a graph admits a partition of its vertex set into k-element cliques or anticliques (i.e. independent sets) is polynomial.
