摘要
It is shown that if G is a graph such that the maximum size of a set of pairwise edge-disjoint triangles is v(G), then there is a set C of edges of G of size at most (3 - epsilon)v(G) such that E(T) boolean AND C not equal empty set for every triangle T of G, where epsilon > 3/23. This is the first nontrivial bound known for a long-standing conjecture of Tuza. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
