Motivated by a question of Erdős, Gallai, and Tuza, we study the relationship between $\rho_\triangle(G)$ and $\alpha_1(G)$ and establish a sharp upper bound on $\rho_\triangle(G)$. We also prove Nordhaus-Gaddum-type inequalities for the considered invariants.</dc:description><dc:date>2025</dc:date><dc:date>2024-10-03 11:29:42</dc:date><dc:type>Neznano</dc:type><dc:identifier>20511</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>UDK: 519.17</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>ISSN pri članku: 0012-365X</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>DOI: 10.1016/j.disc.2024.114226</dc:identifier><dc:identifier>COBISS_ID: 206292739</dc:identifier><dc:language>sl</dc:language></metadata>
