โฆ Synopsis
In this paper, we present some sharp upper bounds for the number of spanning trees of a connected graph in terms of its structural parameters such as the number of vertices, the number of edges, maximum vertex degree, minimum vertex degree, connectivity and chromatic number.

A rccenl theorem due to W'aller is applied to the mokculnr gmph of a typical conjugtcd system (naphthalene) in order to demonstrate the enumeration of spanning trees, on each of which a "ring current" calculation may be based.
For a connected graph G, let ~-(G) be the set of all spanning trees of G and let nd(G) be the number of vertices of maximum degree in G. In this paper we show that if G is a cactus or a connected graph with p vertices and p+ 1 edges, then the set {na(T) : T C ~-(G)) has at most one gap, that is, it
The quantum mechanical relevance of the concept of a spanning tree extant within a given molecular graph-specifically, one that may be considered to represent the carbon-atom connectivity of a particular (planar) conjugated system-was first explicitly pointed out by Professor Roy McWeeny in his now-
The problem is to determine the linear graph that has the maximum number of spanning trees, where only the number of nodes N and the number of branches B are prescribed. We deal with connected graphs G(N, B) obtained by deleting D branches from a complete graph KN. Our solution is for D less than or
