Maximum chromatic number of a triangle-free graph on n vertices.

noncomputable def triangleFreeMaxChromatic (n : ) : := sSup {χ | G : SimpleGraph (Fin n), G.CliqueFree 3 G.chromaticNumber = χ}

Lower bound (Hefty–Horn–King–Pfender 2025). There exists a constant $c_1 \in (0,1]$ such that, for sufficiently large $n$, $$ c_1 \sqrt{\frac{n}{\log n}} \le f(n), $$ where $f(n)$ denotes the maximum chromatic number of a triangle-free graph on $n$ vertices, formalized as triangleFreeMaxChromatic n.

Upper bound (Davies–Illingworth 2022). There exists a constant $c_2 \ge 2$ such that, for sufficiently large $n$, $$ f(n) \le c_2 \sqrt{\frac{n}{\log n}}, $$ where $f(n)$ denotes the maximum chromatic number of a triangle-free graph on $n$ vertices, formalized as triangleFreeMaxChromatic n.
