31 k-Connectivity Definition: G is k-connected if • V(G) > k, and • Removing fewer than k vertices does not disconnect the graph (We will say that every graph is 0-connected ) Definition: The connectivity of G (denoted κ(G) = “kappa”) is the maximum k such that G is k-connected

Similarly, a graph is k-edge connected if it has at least two vertices and no set For 2-edge-connected graphs, there is a structural theorem similar to Theorem

What is the meaning of K connected graph?
In graph theory, a connected graph G is said to be k-vertex-connected (or k-connected) if it has more than k vertices and remains connected whenever fewer than k vertices are removed.- Lowercase (?)
In graph theory, the connectivity of a graph is given by ?. In differential geometry, the curvature of a curve is given by ?. In linear algebra, the condition number of a matrix is given by ?. Kappa statistics such as Cohen's kappa and Fleiss' kappa are methods for calculating inter-rater reliability.
