In this paper, we show that a connected graph or a connected triangle-free graph is $k$-connected, maximally connected or super-connected if the number of edges or the spectral radius is large enough.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-08-17T18:07:49.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C40", "05C50" ], "keywords": [ "sufficient conditions", "minimum degree", "connected graph", "minimum vertex-cut isolates", "spectral radius" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
