Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Consider a graph with vertices labeled A, B, C, D, and edges (A, B), (B, C), (C, D), (D, A), (B, D). Identify and list all edge cuts, and calculate the edge connectivity.

💡 Hint: Analyze how each edge interacts with the others connected.

Challenge 2 Hard

Given a graph example where edge connectivity = 1, construct such a graph and justify your answer by identifying its edge cut.

💡 Hint: Visualize scenarios where minimal edge connection is pertinent.
