Abstract

Erdo{combining double acute accent}s posed the problem of finding conditions on a graph G that imply t (G) = b (G), where t (G) is the largest number of edges in a triangle-free subgraph and b (G) is the largest number of edges in a bipartite subgraph. Let δc be the least number so that any graph G on n vertices with minimum degree δc n has t (G) = b (G). Extending results of Bondy, Shen, Thomassé and Thomassen we show that 0.75 ≤ δc < 0.791.
