This problem set is about minimum spanning trees. Sollin's algorithm is a minimum spanning tree. It works as follows.
Step : Start with a forest that has n spanning trees each has one vertex
Step : Select one minimum cost edge for each tree. This edge has exactly one vertex in the tree.
Step : Delete multiple copies of selected edges and if two edges with the same cost connecting two trees, keep only one of them.
Step : Repeat until we obtain only one tree.
a Given a connected weighted graph G is minimum spanning tree of G unique? If YES, please justify you answer; If NO please provide a counterexample.
b What is the worstcase time complexity of the Sollin's algorithm mentioned above? Please analyze step by step
c Please prove that Sollin's algorithm is able to find the minimum spanning tree.
