We consider classes of connected graphs, defined by functional constraints of the number of the edges depending on the vertex quantity. We show that for any fixed $C$ this problem is polynomially solvable in the class $\bigcup_{n=1}^\infty\{G\colon|V(G)|=n,\,|E(G)|\leq n+C[\log_2(n)]\}$. From the other hand, we prove that this problem isn't polynomial in the class $\bigcup_{n=1}^\infty\{G\colon|V(G)|=n,\,|E(G)|\leq n+f^2(n)\}$, providing $f(n)\colon\mathbb N\to\mathbb N$ is unbounded and nondecreasing and an exponent of $f(n)$ grows faster than a polynomial of $n$. The last result holds if there is no subexponential algorithms for solving of the independent set problem. Bibliogr. 3.
Keywords: computational complexity, independent set problem.
