Find the values of alpha and omega for the two graphs given in the attached file (45.4.doc).

The stability number, alpha(G), of a graph G is the cardinality of the largest subset S of V(G), the vertex set of G, such that no two of the vertices in S are connected by an edge of G.

The clique number, omega(G), of a graph G is the cardinality of the largest subset S of V(G), the vertex set of G, such that every pair of vertices in S are connected by an edge of G.

Two graphs, G and H, are given as figures in an attached .doc file (45.4.doc). Find the values of alpha(G), omega(G), alpha(H), and omega(H).
