Let IGI be the number of vertices of a graph G and to(G) be the density of G. We call a graph G packed if the clique graph K(G) of G has exactly 2 IGI-O'(G) cliques. We correct the characterization of clique graphs of packed graphs given in Theorem 3.2 of Hedman [3]. All graphs considered here are finite, undirected and simple. We denote the number of vertices of a graph G by I al. A clique of a graph G is a maximal complete subgraph of G. The clique graph K(G) of a graph G is the intersection graph of the vertex sets of cliques of G. The density co(G) of a graph G is the number of the vertices in the largest clique of G. The graph G is said to be clique-critical if for each vertex v of G, K(G -v) is non-isomorphic to K(G). We call a graph G packed if IK(G)I = 2 Icl-''(c). This definition is well-defined since for every graph G, [K(G)I <~ 2 Icl-Β°'(c) by [3], Theorem 2.1.
We write H < G if the graph H is an induced subgraph of the graph G. An 2n-Neumann graph H2, is the complement of a matching between 2n vertices (see ). Let G1, 62 be two graphs with V(G1) CI V(G2) = ~. The join of G1 and 62, denoted by G1 + G2, is the graph with vertex set V(G1)U V(G2) and edge set
and v β’ V(G2)}. Other definitions not here will be found in [1]. B. Hedman [3] proved the following Theorem. Theorem A. For a graph G, let IGI-co(G) = n. If IK(G)I = 2-, then G > Hz.. We correct the characterization of clique graphs of packed graphs given in [3, Theorem 3.2] as follows: Theorem 1. For a graph G, let IGIco(G)=.. If IK(G)I = 2-, then K(G) is isomorphic to the 2"-Neumann graph HE. or the complete graph K2-.

Clique-gated graphs form an extension of quasi-median graphs. Two characterizations of these graphs are given and some other structural properties are obtained. An O(nm) algorithm is presented which recognizes clique-gated graphs. Here n and m denote the numbers of vertices and edges of a given grap
For each natural number n, denote by G(n) the set of all numbers c such that there exists a graph with exactly c cliques (i.e., complete subgraphs) and n vertices. We prove the asymptotic estimate Ia(n)l = 0(2"n -z/5) and show that all natural numbers between n + 1 and 2 "-6"5~6 belong to G(n). Thus
## Abstract The clique graph __K__(__G__) of a graph is the intersection graph of maximal cliques of __G.__ The iterated clique graph __K__^__n__^(__G__) is inductively defined as __K__(K^nβ1^(__G__)) and __K__^1^(__G__) = __K__(__G__). Let the diameter diam(__G__) be the greatest distance between
## 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__βedge of a graph we mean a complete subgraph with __k__ vertices or a clique with fewer than __k__ vertices. The __k__β
