%N A370002 Maximum number of connected induced subgraphs, up to isomorphism, of an n-vertex graph.
%C A370002 The null subgraph is not considered to be connected.
%C A370002 Remarkably, a(n) = A308852(n) for all n <= 9. This cannot go on forever, however, because we have the trivial bound a(n) <= 2^n, whereas A308852(18) = 337414 > 2^18. (The upper bound below shows that already a(14) <= 7472 < A308852(14) = 8057.)

%e A370002 The table below shows all optimal graphs for n <= 9. For n >= 10, a lower bound obtained by generating several thousands of random graphs is shown, together with a graph attaining this bound. If there is no known simple description or name of the optimal graphs, they are shown in the graph6 format.
