Comments

The maximum frustration of a graph is the maximum cardinality of a set of edges that contains at most half the edges of any cut-set. Another term that is used is "line index of imbalance". It is also equal to the covering radius of the coset code of the graph.

Examples

			For n=2 a set of edges that achieves the maximum cardinality a(2) = 3 is {(1,3),(1,4),(1,5)}.

Mathematica

Formula

a(n) = floor(154/64*n) - 1 if n = 2, 14, 17, 18, 36 or 49.

a(n) = floor(154/64*n) - 2 if n = 1, 3, 5, 10 or 26.

Otherwise a(n) = floor(154/64*n) if n == 7,12,14,16,17,22,24,26, or 27 mod 32

or 3,8,18,34,36,38,43,51, or 63 mod 64

Otherwise a(n) = floor(154/64*n) - 1.

a(n+64) = a(n) + 154 except for n = 1,2,3,5,10,14,17,18,26,36,49.

a(n) = A245230(max(n,7),min(n,7)).
