We introduce what we call `generalized higher rank $k$-graphs' as a class of categories equipped with a notion of size. They extend not only the higher rank $k$-graphs, but also the Levi categories introduced by the first author as a…

In this paper, we mainly investigate $K_{1,2}$-structure-connectivity for any connected graph. Let $G$ be a connected graph with $n$ vertices, we show that $\kappa(G; K_{1,2})$ is well-defined if $diam(G)\geq 4$, or $n\equiv 1\pmod 3$, or…

The concept of maximum local connectivity $\bar {\kappa}$ of a graph was introduced by Bollob\'{a}s. One of the problems about it is to determine the largest number of edges $f(n;\bar{\kappa}\leq \ell)$ for graphs of order $n$ that have…

Connectivity and diagnosability are two important parameters for the fault tolerant of an interconnection network $G$. In 1996, F\`{a}brega and Fiol proposed the $g$-good-neighbor connectivity of $G$. In this paper, we show that $1\leq…

A graph G is called (2k, k)-connected if G is 2k-edge-connected and G-v is k-edge-connected for every vertex v. The study of (2k, k)-connected graphs is motivated by a conjecture of Frank which states that a graph has a 2-vertex-connected…
