Maximum and Minimum Spectral Radii in an Exceptional Family for Edge-Disjoint Spanning Trees
For a connected graph $G$, let $\tau(G)$ denote the maximum number of pairwise edge-disjoint spanning trees, and let $\rho(G)$ be its adjacency spectral radius. For integers $n\ge1$, $k\ge2$, and $k\le\delta\le2k-1$, let $\mathcal{G}_{n,\delta}$ be the class of connected $n$-vertex graphs with minimum degree $\delta$,...
