摘要
Let 9(n) denote the minimum number of edges of a maximal nontraceable graph of order n. Dudek, Katona and Wojda (2003) showed that g(n) >= [3n-2/2]-2 for n >= 20 and g(n) <= [3n-2/2] for n >= 54 as well as for n is an element of I = {22, 23, 30, 31, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51}. We show that g(n) = [3n-2/2] for n >= 54 as well as for n is an element of I boolean OR {12, 13} and we determine g(n) for n <= 9.
