Abstract
A (k;g)‐cage is a k‐regular graph with girth g and with the least possible number of vertices. In this paper, we prove that (k;g)‐cages are k‐edge‐connected if g is even. Earlier, Wang, Xu, and Wang proved that (k;g)‐cages are k‐edge‐connected if g is odd. Combining our results, we conclude that the (k;g)‐cages are k‐edge‐connected. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract For an integer __l__ > 1, the __l__‐edge‐connectivity of a connected graph with at least __l__ vertices is the smallest number of edges whose removal results in a graph with __l__ components. A connected graph __G__ is (__k__, __l__)‐edge‐connected if the __l__‐edge‐connectivity of __G_
## Abstract For a graph __G__, a subset __S__ of __V__(__G__) is called a shredder if __G__ − __S__ consists of three or more components. We show that if __k__ ≥ 4 and __G__ is a __k__‐connected graph, then the number of shredders of cardinality __k__ of __G__ is less than 2|__V__(__G__)|/3 (we sho
## Abstract A graph __G__ is locally __n__‐connected, __n__ ≥ 1, if the subgraph induced by the neighborhood of each vertex is __n__‐connected. We prove that every connected, locally 2‐connected graph containing no induced subgraph isomorphic to __K__~1,3~ is panconnected.
Let k be a positive integer, and D = (V (D), E(D)) be a minimally k-edge-connected simple digraph. We denote the outdegree and indegree of x ∈ V (D) by δ D (x) and ρ D (x), respectively. Let u + (D) denote the number of vertices W. Mader asked the following question in [Mader, in Paul Erdös is Eigh
