    QUICK DISCLAIMER: At 7:00 I say "We say a graph is k-connected if we need to delete at least k vertices to disconnect it". This is correct, but misleading. I should have said "We say a graph is k-connected if deleting fewer than k vertices will not disconnect it". The point I want to make is that a graph being k-connected DOES NOT mean that there is a set of k vertices we can delete to disconnect it. It just means we cannot disconnect it by deleting fewer than k vertices. Then, the maximum k for which a graph is k-connected is called the graph's connectivity. For this max value of k, there are k vertices we can delete to disconnect the graph.
    For clarity, if we need to delete a minimum of 4 vertices to disconnect a graph G, then the graph G has connectivity 4 and is 4-conneced. But it is also 3-connected, 2-connected, 1-connected, and 0-connected.

      isn't the graph G shown in your video 3-connected? Could you explain why it is just 2? Thanks!

    • @angelo-witt

      @@zactranah7942 G is not 3-connected simply because there exists a vertex in G with degree 2. Deleting its two adjacent vertices disconnects it from the graph. So G can indeed be disconnected via deleting only 2 (< 3) vertices.

    0:27 Example 1
    1:30 2 non-adjacent vertices
    2:38 Proof
    2:47 Example 2
    3 separations needed for isolation
    Therefore, 3 internally disjointed paths
    8:21 Given any 2 non-adjacent vertices means at least 2 internally disjoint paths

    Isn't it 3-connected (not 2-connected), because you need to remove at least 3 vertex to make it disconnected?

    • @mattloulou123123
      @mattloulou123123 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello, you may have missed the bottom right vertex, where if the two adjacent vertices are removed, then the graph becomes disconnected.

      @@WrathofMath Thank you for your response. I have a question would i think would make for a great video ( in relation to this video).
      Suppose that in the graph G = (V, E)
      there are two vertex sets V1, V2 ⊆ V such that |V1 ∩ V2| > 1 and such that the induced
      subgraphs G[Vi
      ] are 2 -connected for i = 1, 2 . Show that G[V1 ∪ V2] is 2 -connected.
