A note on 3‐partite graphs without 4‐cycles

Let $C_4$ be a cycle of order 4. Write $ex\left(n,n,n,C_4\right)$ for the maximum number of edges in a balanced 3‐partite graph whose vertex set consists of three parts, each has $n$ vertices that have no subgraph isomorphic to $C_4$. In this paper, we show that $ex\left(n,n,n,C_4\right)\ge \frac{3}{2}n\left(p+1\right)$, where $n=\frac{p\left(p?1\right)}{2}$ and $p$ is a prime number. Note that $ex\left(n,n,n,C_4\right)\le \left(\frac{3\sqrt{2}}{2}+o\left(1\right)\right)n^{\frac{3}{2}}$ from Tait and Timmons's works. Since for every integer $m$, one can find a prime $p$ such that $m\le p\le \left(1+o\left(1\right)\right)m$, we obtain that $\underset{n\to \infty }{\lim }\frac{ex\left(n,n,n,C_4\right)}{\frac{3\sqrt{2}}{2}{n}^{\frac{3}{2}}}=1$.
