Abstract
We consider the well-known problem of enumerating all triangles of an undirected graph. Our focus is on determining the input/output (I/O) complexity of this problem. Let E be the number of edges, M Ec for a constant c > 0. Our results are based on a new color coding technique, which may be of independent interest.
