Title
Large triangle packings and Tuza's conjecture in sparse random graphs
Abstract
The triangle packing number nu(G) of a graph G is the maximum size of a set of edge-disjoint triangles in G. Tuza conjectured that in any graph G there exists a set of at most 2 nu(G) edges intersecting every triangle in G. We show that Tuza's conjecture holds in the random graph G = G(n, m), when m <= 0.2403n(3/2) or m >= 2.1243n(3/2). This is done by analysing a greedy algorithm for finding large triangle packings in random graphs.
