Abstract

The aim of this paper is to give several characterizations for the following two classes of graphs: (i) graphs for which adding any \(l\) edges produces a graph which is decomposable into \(k\) spanning trees and (ii) graphs for which adding some \(l\) edges produces a graph which is decomposable into \(k\) spanning trees.
