A maximum spanning tree is a spanning tree of a weighted graph having maximum weight. It can be computed by negating the weights for each edge and applying Kruskal's algorithm (Pemmaraju and Skiena, 2003, p. 336). A maximum spanning tree can be found in the Wolfram Language using the command FindSpanningTree[g].
