Understanding Minimum Spanning Trees (MST) through Algorithms and Their Properties

This document delves into the concept of Minimum Spanning Trees (MST) for connected, undirected, weighted graphs. It presents the problem of finding an MST that minimizes total edge weight. Key properties such as optimal substructure and the inclusion of minimum-weight edges are discussed. Algorithms like Prim's algorithm are introduced with step-by-step execution examples. Detailed proofs affirm the essential theorems related to MST, emphasizing their significance in diverse computational applications.

  6. Minimum Spanning Tree • MSTs satisfy the optimal substructure property: an optimal tree is composed of optimal subtrees. • Let T be an MST of G with an edge (u,v) in the middle. • Removing (u,v) partitions T into two trees T1 and T2. • Claim: T1 is an MST of G1 = (V1,E1), and T2 is an MST of G2 = (V2,E2) (Do V1 and V2 share vertices? Why?) • Proof: w(T) = w(u,v) + w(T1) + w(T2)(There can’t be a better tree than T1 or T2, or T would be suboptimal) 610/2/2014

  7. Minimum Spanning Tree • Thm: • Let T be MST of G, and let A  T be subtree of T. • Let (u,v) be min-weight edge connecting A to V-A. • Then (u,v)  T. 710/2/2014

  8. Minimum Spanning Tree • Thm: • Let T be MST of G, and let A  T be subtree of T • Let (u,v) be min-weight edge connecting A to V-A • Then (u,v)  T • Proof: in book (see Thm 23.1) 810/2/2014
