Question
Chapter 12.3, Problem 8E
(a)
To determine
Kruskal’s algorithm be used to do this and dDiscuss both the weighted and un weighted cases.
Suppose we have a connected graph G and we want to find a spanning tree for G that contains a given edge e.
(b)
To determine
To prove: If G is a connected graph, then any (not necessarily connected) sub-graph that contains no circuits is part of some spanning tree for G. Consider both the weighted and unweight cases.
