We calculate exponential growth constants $phi$ and $sigma$ describing the asymptotic behavior of spanning forests and connected spanning subgraphs on strip graphs, with arbitrarily great length, of several two-dimensional lattices, including square, triangular, honeycomb, and certain heteropolygonal Archimedean lattices. By studying the limiting values as the strip widths get large, we infer lower and upper bounds on these exponential growth constants for the respective infinite lattices. Since our lower and upper bounds are quite close to each other, we can infer very accurate approximate values for these exponential growth constants, with fractional uncertainties ranging from $O(10^{-4})$ to $O(10^{-2})$. We show that $phi$ and $sigma$, are monotonically increasing functions of vertex degree for these lattices.
In the Survivable Network Design Problem (SNDP), the input is an edge-weighted (di)graph $G$ and an integer $r_{uv}$ for every pair of vertices $u,vin V(G)$. The objective is to construct a subgraph $H$ of minimum weight which contains $r_{uv}$ edge-
For a two-dimensional lattice $Lambda$ with $n$ vertices, the number of spanning trees $N_{ST}(Lambda)$ grows asymptotically as $exp(n z_Lambda)$ in the thermodynamic limit. We present exact integral expression and numerical value for the asymptotic
We study the number of connected spanning subgraphs $f_{d,b}(n)$ on the generalized Sierpinski gasket $SG_{d,b}(n)$ at stage $n$ with dimension $d$ equal to two, three and four for $b=2$, and layer $b$ equal to three and four for $d=2$. The upper and
In 2009, Bang-Jensen asked whether there exists a function $g(k)$ such that every strongly $k$-connected $n$-vertex tournament contains a strongly $k$-connected spanning subgraph with at most $kn + g(k)$ arcs. In this paper, we answer the question by
In the minimum $k$-edge-connected spanning subgraph ($k$-ECSS) problem the goal is to find the minimum weight subgraph resistant to up to $k-1$ edge failures. This is a central problem in network design, and a natural generalization of the minimum sp
