STP - protocol id in bpdu
The STP BPDU begins with the protocol id field and the version id. I understand that the version is the type of the STP:
0 stands for STP,
2 for RSTP
and 3 for MSTP.
So what do we really need the protocol id field for? When will it not be 0?

Python basic spanning tree algorithm
I cannot figure out how to implement a basic spanning tree in Python; an un-weighted spanning tree.
I've learned how to implement an adjacency list:
for edge in adj1:
x, y = edge[int(0)], edge[int(1)]
if x not in adj2: adj2[x] = set()
if…

Polynomial Time Reduction Gadget that runs in poly time but creates n! size output.
Say someone has found a way to create a graph given a CNF boolean expression in O(n^3) time, and that any spanning tree of this special graph will be a solution to the CNF equation.
The scenario seems to be hinting that the someone has found a…

Spanning tree with exactly a1+a2=n edges
This question is very similar to this one: spanning tree with exactly k colored edges
It's not the same question! - As you can see the answer of the question above is not the same (to my Q)....
We have a connected, undirected graph G=(V,E) with…

Shortest path of two vertices in spanning tree with edges all the same distance
I have a spanning tree of a graph, starting from a vertex v. All the edges are the same distance (Let's say 1).
How can I work out what the shortest path from v to another vertex u?

Spanning tree DFS algorithm doesn't create a tree
I wrote this pseudocode to create a spanning tree from a non oriented graph (G,V), where S is a stack and v is the vertex from which we want to start the computation:
PROCEDURE SPANNING-TREE(G,v)
S := {v}
while S is not empty

Best algorithm to find shortest path in a spanning tree from single source to all other nodes
How can I find the shortest path from every vertex to every vertex if I know that the given graph is actually a spanning tree i.e. each pair of vertices have only one path between them?
I want the most optimal solution. I know the Dijkstra's…

Given a graph G with unique edge weights, are all max spanning trees of G a max bottleneck tree?
The full version of this question is quoted below:
Let G be a connected graph with n vertices, m edges with distinct edge
weights. Let T be a tree of G with n vertices and n-1 edges (i.e. a
spanning tree), and define a bottleneck edge of T to…

Minimum cost broadcast routing
Is there any method where we can get a minimum cost broadcast routing scheme without using the spanning tree algorithm?
Any references to guide me on this will be of great use to me.

Linear Time Algorithm to Find MST?
Given 2 Algorithms for a graph G=(V,E):
One:
Sort edges from lowest to highest weight.
Set T = {}
for each edge e in the previous order, check if e Union T doesn't have any cycles.
If yes, Add e to T.
Return T if it's a spanning Tree.
Two:
