Abstract

The thickness θ ( G ) of a graph G is the minimum number of planar subgraphs into which G can be decomposed. In this paper, we provide a new upper bound for the thickness of the complete tripartite graphs K n , n , n ( n ≥ 3) and obtain θ ( K n , n , n ) = ⌈( n + 1) / 3⌉ , when n ≡ 3 (mod 6 ).
