Let T1, T2,.... Tk be spanning trees in a graph G. If for any pair of vertices u and v of G, the paths between u and v in every Ti( 0 < i < k+1) do not contain common edges then T1, T2,.... Tk are called edge-disjoint spanning trees in G.…

A network can contain numerous spanning trees. If two spanning trees $T_i,T_j$ do not share any common edges, $T_i$ and $T_j$ are said to be pairwisely edge-disjoint. For spanning trees $T_1, T_2, ..., T_m$, if every two of them are…
