Abstract
A k-tree of a connected graph G is a spanning tree with maximum degree
at most k. The rupture degree for a
connected graph G is defined by , where and ,
respectively, denote the order of the largest component and number of
components in . In this
paper, we show that for a connected graph G,
if for any cut-set , then G has a k-tree.
