K-edge-connected Graph - Relation To Minimum Vertex Degree

Relation To Minimum Vertex Degree

Minimum vertex degree gives a trivial upper bound on edge-connectivity. That is, if a graph G = (E,V) is k-edge-connected then it is necessary that k ≤ δ(G), where δ(G) is the minimum degree of any vertex vV. Obviously, deleting all edges incident to a vertex, v, would then disconnect v from the graph.

Famous quotes containing the words relation to, relation, minimum and/or degree:

    Science is the language of the temporal world; love is that of the spiritual world. Man, indeed, describes more than he explains; while the angelic spirit sees and understands. Science saddens man; love enraptures the angel; science is still seeking, love has found. Man judges of nature in relation to itself; the angelic spirit judges of it in relation to heaven. In short to the spirits everything speaks.
    Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)

    You must realize that I was suffering from love and I knew him as intimately as I knew my own image in a mirror. In other words, I knew him only in relation to myself.
    Angela Carter (1940–1992)

    After decades of unappreciated drudgery, American women just don’t do housework any more—that is, beyond the minimum that is required in order to clear a path from the bedroom to the front door so they can get off to work in the mourning.
    Barbara Ehrenreich (20th century)

    Every man beholds his human condition with a degree of melancholy. As a ship aground is battered by the waves, so man, imprisoned in mortal life, lies open to the mercy of coming events.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
