β¦ Synopsis
For a connected graph G = (V, E), an edge set S β E is a restricted edge cut if G -S is disconnected and there is no isolated vertex in G -S. The cardinality of a minimum restricted edge cut of G is the restricted edge connectivity of G, denoted by Ξ» (G).
, where ΞΎ(G) is the minimum edge degree of G. We show in this work that a minimally restricted edge connected graph is always Ξ» -optimal.

In this article, we deal with a connectivity problem stated by Maurer and Slater to characterize minimally k-edge'-connected graphs. This problem has been solved for k = 1,2 and 3, and we recall herein the results obtained. Then we give some partial results concerning the case k =4: representation o
## Abstract For an integer __l__β>β1, the __l__βedgeβconnectivity 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__)βedgeβconnected if the __l__βedgeβconnectivity of __G_
A graph G = (V; E) is called minimally (k; T )-edge-connected with respect to some T β V if there exist k-edge-disjoint paths between every pair u; v β T but this property fails by deleting any edge of G. We show that |V | can be bounded by a (linear) function of k and |T | if each vertex in V -T ha
