In this\nproblem\, G is an arbitrar y known graph\, and G* is an unknown random\nsubgraph of G containing each of its edges independently with a known\nprobability p. Edges of G* can o nly be verified using edge queries.\nThe goal in this problem is to find a minimum vertex cover of G* using\na small number of queries.\n DTSTAMP:20250524T081914Z END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
