Maximum Score of a Node Sequence

There is an undirected graph with n nodes, numbered from 0 to n - 1.

There is an undirected graph with n nodes, numbered from 0 to n - 1.

You are given a 0-indexed integer array scores of length n where scores[i] denotes the score of node i. You are also given a 2D integer array edges where edges[i] = [ai, bi] denotes that there exists an undirected edge connecting nodes ai and bi.

A node sequence is valid if it meets the following conditions:

The score of a node sequence is defined as the sum of the scores of the nodes in the sequence.

Return the maximum score of a valid node sequence with a length of 4. If no such sequence exists, return -1.

Example 1

Input: scores = [5,2,9,8,4], edges = [[0,1],[1,2],[2,3],[0,2],[1,3],[2,4]]

Output: 24

Explanation: The figure above shows the graph and the chosen node sequence [0,1,2,3]. The score of the node sequence is 5 + 2 + 9 + 8 = 24. It can be shown that no other node sequence has a score of more than 24. Note that the sequences [3,1,2,0] and [1,0,2,3] are also valid and have a score of 24. The sequence [0,3,2,4] is not valid since no edge connects nodes 0 and 3.

Example 2

Input: scores = [9,20,6,4,11,12], edges = [[0,3],[5,3],[2,4],[1,3]]

Output: -1

Explanation: The figure above shows the graph. There are no valid node sequences of length 4, so we return -1.

Constraints

  • n == scores.length
  • 4 <= n <= 5 * 10^4
  • 1 <= scores[i] <= 10^8
  • 0 <= edges.length <= 5 * 10^4
  • edges[i].length == 2
  • 0 <= ai, bi <= n - 1
  • ai != bi
  • There are no duplicate edges.
