Let G = (V(G), E(G)) be a graph. A set S ⊆ E(G) is an edge k-cut in G if the graph G − S = (V(G), E(G) \ S) has at least k connected components. The generalized k-edge connectivity of a graph G, ...

Chemical graph theory provides a rigorous framework for representing molecular structures as graphs, where vertices denote atoms and edges represent bonds. This mathematical abstraction facilitates ...
