Making a K4-free graph bipartite
Abstract
We show that every K4-free graph G with n vertices can be made bipartite by deleting at most n2/9 edges. Moreover, the only extremal graph which requires deletion of that many edges is a complete 3-partite graph with parts of size n/3. This proves an old conjecture of P. Erdos.
