Explanation Given information: A spanning forest of graph G is a forest that contains every vertex of G such that two vertices are in the same tree of the forest when there is a path in G between these two vertices. We carry out the breadth-first search algorithm, marking each vertex as we encounter it. The set of vertices encountered (and all the edges joining those vertices) form one component. Once breadth-first search has concluded we look for an unmarked vertex and repeat the process starting from an unmarked vertex; this gives us a second component. When there are no more unmarked vertices, we are done. This works just as well for depth-first search. V = { v 1 , v 2 , v 3 ..... v n } M = { v 1 } L = { v 1 } C = 1 While L ≠ V If M = 0 then, For i = 1 t o

Applied combinatorics 14) A graph G is called maximal planar if G is planar but the addition of anotheredge between two nonadjacent vertices will make the graph nonplanar.(a) Show that every region of a connected, maximal planar graph will be triangular.(b) If a connected, maximal planar graph has n vertices, how many regions andedges does it have?

Applied combinatorics Prove that if a graph G has 11 vertices, then either G or its complement G must be nonplanar. (Hint: Determine the total number N11 of edges in a complete graph on 11 vertices; if the result were false and G and its complement were each planar,how many of the N11 edges could be in each of these two graphs?)
