Two drawings of the Template:Math graph

In graph theory, an Andrásfai graph is a triangle-free, circulant graph named after Béla Andrásfai.

Properties

The Andrásfai graph Template:Math for any natural number Template:Math is a circulant graph on Template:Math vertices, in which vertex Template:Mvar is connected by an edge to vertices Template:Math, for every Template:Mvar that is congruent to 1 mod 3. For instance, the Wagner graph is an Andrásfai graph, the graph Template:Math.

The graph family is triangle-free, and Template:Math has an independence number of Template:Mvar. From this the formula Template:Math results, where Template:Math is the Ramsey number. The equality holds for Template:Math and Template:Math only.

The Andrásfai graphs were later generalized.[1][2]
