摘要
Vertex and edge connectivity are special cases of mixed connectivity, in which all edges and a specified set of vertices play a similar role. Certificates of k-connectivity for a graph are obtained by removing a subset of its edges, while preserving its connectivity up to k. We unify the previous work on connectivity certificates and extend it to handle mixed connectivity and multigraphs. Our treatment contributes a new insight of the pertinent structures, yielding more general results and simpler proofs. Also, we present the first communication-optimal distributed algorithm for finding mixed connectivity certificates. (C) 1998 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
