Abstract

We prove that the maximum edge biclique problem in bipartite graphs is NP-complete.A biclique in a bipartite graph is a vertex induced subgraph which is complete.The problem of finding a biclique with a maximum number of vertices is known to be solvable in polynomial time but the complexity of finding a biclique with a maximum number of edges was still undecided.
