Introduction to Monochromatic
Triangles
• A monochromatic triangle in a graph is a
triangle (three vertices with edges between
them) where all edges are the same color.
Relevance to Theory of
Computation
• Monochromatic triangles play a significant
role in various computational problems,
particularly in algorithms, complexity theory,
and applications in computer science.
Basic Definitions
• Graph: A collection of vertices (nodes) and
edges (connections).
• Triangle: A set of three vertices connected
pairwise by edges.
• Monochromatic: All edges of the same color in
a graph with edges colored with two or more
colors.
Graph Theory Basics
• Vertices and Edges: Definition and examples.
• Types of Graphs: Directed, undirected,
weighted, etc.
• Coloring: Assigning colors to edges or vertices
under certain constraints.
Monochromatic Triangles in
Graphs
• A monochromatic triangle is a triangle where
all three edges have the same color.
• Examples: Illustrations showing
monochromatic and non-monochromatic
triangles.
Ramsey Theory Overview
• Ramsey Theory: A branch of mathematics that
studies the conditions under which order must
appear.
• Focuses on finding a certain level of structure
in sufficiently large graphs or hypergraphs.
Ramsey Numbers
• Ramsey Number (R(m, n)): The minimum
number of vertices required to ensure a
complete monochromatic subgraph.
• Example: R(3,3) is the smallest number of
vertices needed to guarantee a
monochromatic triangle in any two-color edge
coloring.
Ramsey Theorem for Triangles
• For any complete graph with edges colored
with two colors, there exists a monochromatic
triangle.
• Significance: This theorem is crucial in graph
theory and combinatorial mathematics.
