Abstract: Abstract In this paper, we consider non-sparse random graphs with non-uniform edge probabilities where each vertex is assigned a random positive weight and study the maximum weight of a stable set. We use local weighted domination together with the second moment method to obtain deviation bounds in terms of average edge probability per vertex and then utilize martingale difference methods to establish $$L^2$$ L 2 -convergence for the maximum weight, appropriately scaled and centred. We also illustrate our result with an example involving vertex weight distributions satisfying a power law decay.
