Packing and covering directed triangles

Published 22 Jun 2018 in math.CO | (1806.08809v2)

Abstract: We prove that if a directed multigraph $D$ has at most $t$ pairwise arc-disjoint directed triangles, then there exists a set of less than $2t$ arcs in $D$ which meets all directed triangles in $D$, except in the trivial case $t=0$. This answers affirmatively a question of Tuza from 1990.
