For a positive integer k, a graph is k-knitted if for each subset S of k vertices, and every partition of S into (disjoint) parts S1,…,St for some t≥1, one can find disjoint connected subgraphs C1,…,Ct such that Ci contains Si for each i∈[t]≔{1,2,…,t}. In this article, we show that if the minimum degree of an n-vertex graph G is at least n∕2+k∕2−1 when n≥2k+3, then G is k-knitted. The minimum degree is sharp. As a corollary, we obtain that k-contraction-critical graphs are k8-connected. |
