Abstract

A result of Korte and LovΓ‘sz states that the basis graph of every 2‐ connected greedoid is connected. We prove that the basis graph of every 3‐connected branching greedoid is (Ξ΄ ‐‐ 1)‐connected, where Ξ΄ is the minimum in‐degree (disregarding the root) of the underlying rooted directed (multi) graph. We also give examples showing that this results is (in some sense) best possible.

Given a connected graph G, denote by V the family of all the spanning trees of G. Define an adjacency relation in V as follows: the spanning trees t and t$ are said to be adjacent if for some vertex u # V, t&u is connected and coincides with t$&u. The resultant graph G is called the leaf graph of G.

A graph G is said to be bi-3-connected if not only G but also its complement (~ are 3-connected and a two-vertex set whose contraction results in a bi-3-connected graph is called a bi-contractible pair of G. We prove that every bi-3-connected graph of order at least 22 has a bi-contractible pair.
