Defining the connectivity of a graph












1












$begingroup$


Consider a simple binary undirected graph, which adjacency matrix is $A = {a_{i,j}} in {0, 1}^{N times N}.$



Suppose that all vertices of such graph have at least one neighbors, i.e.



$$k_i = sum_{j=1}^N{a_{i,j}} geq 1.$$



How do we call this graph?



Reading the definition of connectivity, I did not find anything about this particular case.



I would say that it is "minimally connected".



Is there a proper nomenclature for these graphs?

    Binary stands for "non-weighted", i.e. the entries of $A$ are in the set ${0, 1}$, not in $mathbb{R}^+$.

$begingroup$

Requiring that every vertex have positive degree is not sufficient to make the graph connected. You may describe your graph as having no isolated vertices.
