Also we present sufficient conditions for the complete geometric graph on $2n\\/$ vertices to have a partition of its edge set into $n\\/$ plane spanning trees (which are double stars, caterpillars or $ w\\/$-caterpillars).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-06-13T10:56:13.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "complete geometric graph", "plane trees", "plane spanning trees", "edge set", "well-known open question" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 18, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
