摘要
It is shown that if G is a tripartite 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 (2 - epsilon)v(G), such that E(T) boolean AND C not equal (empty set) for every triangle T of G, where epsilon > 0.044. This improves the previous bound of (7/3)v(G) due to Tuza [6].
