## Abstract Let __C__ be the class of triangleβfree graphs with maximum degree at most three. A lower bound for the number of edges in a graph of __C__ is derived in terms of the number of vertices and the independence. Several classes of graphs for which this bound is attained are given. As coroll
A simple polynomial-time algorithm is presented which computes independent sets of guaranteed size in connected triangle-free noncubic graphs with maximum degree 3. Let nand m denote the number of vertices and edges, respectively, and let c '= m/n denote the edge density where c < 3/2. The algorithm
