摘要
Combining recent results on colorings and Ramsey theory, we show that if G is a triangle-free graph with e edges then the chromatic number of G is at most cel(1/3)(log e)(-2/3) for some constant c. In a previous paper, we found an upper bound on the chromatic number of a triangle-free graph of genus g. Using the new result, we slightly improve this bound to cg(1/3)(log g)(-2/3). Both bounds are best possible, up to a constant multiple. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
