Clique complex

The abstract simplicial complex Cl (G) has various names it is called a flag complex in algebraic topology, while it is called a clique complex in combinatorics, prompted by the fact that clique is another term used in graph theory for complete subgraphs. 

A last note of simple humor. One of the compounds used in this preparati on was N,N,N , N -tetramethy lethylenediamine, whichhas been abbreviated TMEDA. There is a pattern, within any active inner clique of research chemists intently pursuing a goal, to begin condensing complex concepts into deceptively simple terms. We MOM-ed the hydroxy group of the T-BOC-ed amine. I have recendy heard the above tetramethyl monster referred to in the chemist s jargon as a pronounced, rather than a spelled out, word. It sounds very much like tomato spoken by a native of the Bronx. 

I shall say that the state has explanatory autonomy when (and to the extent that) its structure and policies cannot be explained by the interest of an economically dominant class. The explanation may be found in some other set of interests, for example the interest of the ruling clique or the interests of society as a whole. Or the actions of the state may be explained as the outcome of the internal decision-making apparatus of bureaucracy, including routines and bargaining procedures that do not realize any well-defined interest. Whatever the alternative is, the autonomy is defined negatively, as the absence of class-interest explanation. It might appear obvious that Marx denied the autonomy of the state in this sense, but matters are more complex. Rather he tended to affirm it in many cases - and then go on to assert, paradoxically, that the autonomy itself can be explained in terms of class interest or, alternatively, in terms of class structure. State autonomy, that is, may be explained by the fact... 

Greater complexity where an individual s interactions with others are more common (e.g. higher rate of interaction, or more interactants) similarly, where more relationships are the rule (as in analyses based on clique size see Dunbar 1998). Further dyadic-level complexities include reciprocity (in grooming, for example) and exchange (where one type of benefit is traded for another). There is evidence for both these types of complexity in primates (Cords 1997).
