诱导子图的MST中边集的紧界

A tight bound on the collection of edges in MSTs of induced subgraphs

Gregory B. Sorkin, Angelika Steger, Rico Zenklusen

摘要:

设$G=(V,E)$是一个具有不同正边权的完全$n$ -顶点图.证明了对于$k\in\{1,2,...,n-1\}$,$G$的具有$n-k+1$顶点的诱导子图上的所有最小生成树(MST)的边构成的集合至多有$nk-\binom{k+1}{2}$元素.这证明了Goemans和Vondrak \cite{GV2005}的一个猜想。我们还证明了该结果是Mader定理的推广,该定理限制了任何边极小$k$ -连通图的边数。

英文摘要:

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a complete $n$-vertex graph with distinct positive edge weights. We prove that for $k\in\{1,2,...,n-1\}$, the set consisting of the edges of all minimum spanning trees (MSTs) over induced subgraphs of $G$ with $n-k+1$ vertices has at most $nk-\binom{k+1}{2}$ elements. This proves a conjecture of Goemans and Vondrak \cite{GV2005}. We also show that the result is a generalization of Mader's Theorem, which bounds the number of edges in any edge-minimal $k$-connected graph.
