Abstract

We denote by G(n) the graph obtained by removing a Hamilton cycle from the complete graph Kn. In this paper, we calculate the lower bound for the minimum number of monochromatic triangles in any 2-edge coloring of G(n) using the weight method. Also, by explicit constructions, we give an upper bound for the minimum number of monochromatic triangles in 2-edge coloring of G(n) and the difference between our lower and upper bound is just two.
