Title
The Generalized Three-Connectivity of Two Kinds of Cayley Graphs.
Abstract
Let <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$S \subseteq V (G)$</tex> and <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$\kappa_{G}(S)$</tex> denote the maximum number <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$r$</tex> of edge-disjoint trees <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$T_1, T_2,\ldots, T_r$</tex> in G such that <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$V \ (T_i) \cap V \ (T_j) =S$</tex> for any <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$i,j \in \{ 1, 2, \ldots, r\}$</tex> and <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$i \neq j$</tex> . For an integer k with <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$2 \leq k \leq n$</tex> , the generalized k-connectivity of a graph G is defined as <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$\kappa_k \ (G) = \min \ \{\kappa_{G} \ (S) \vert S \subseteq V (G)$</tex> and <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$\vert S \vert = k\}$</tex> . The generalized k-connectivity is a generalization of traditional connectivity. In this paper, we focus on the Cayley graph generated by complete graphs and the Cayley graph generated by wheel graphs, denoted by <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$CT_n$</tex> and <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$WG_n$</tex> , respectively. We study the generalized 3-connectivity of the two kinds of graphs and show that <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$\kappa_{3} \ (CT_n) = {n(n-1) \over 2} - 1$</tex> and <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$\kappa_3 (WG_n) = 2n - 3$</tex> for <tex xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">$n \geq 3$</tex> .
