For a given graph the maximum independent set problem is to find a maximum subset of vertices no two of which are adjacent. We propose a heuristic for the maximum independent set problem which utilizes classical results for the problem of optimization of a quadratic function over a sphere. The efficiency of the approach is confirmed by results of numerical experiments on DIMACS benchmarks.
