We show that the maximum independent set problem (MIS) on an $n$-vertex graph can be solved in $1.1996^nn^{O(1)}$ time and polynomial space, which even is faster than Robson's $1.2109^{n}n^{O(1)}$-time exponential-space algorithm published…

We revisit the complexity analysis of the recursive version of the randomized greedy algorithm for computing a maximal independent set (MIS), originally analyzed by Yoshida, Yamamoto, and Ito (2009). They showed that, on average per vertex,…
