Clique percolation
From InterSciWiki
Clique percolation is the network structure defined by intersecting cliques, e.g., (a) 3-clique percolation consists of the intersection of all overlapping cliques with three or more members, and similarly for 4-cliques or, in general, n-cliques, where n is any integer, 3 or greater.
