description

International audience; Let k >= 2 be an integer and T-1,..., T-k be spanning trees of a graph G. If for any pair of vertices {u, v} of V(G), the paths between u and v in every T-i, 1 <= i <= k, do not contain common edges and common vertices, except the vertices u and v, then T1,... Tk are completely independent spanning trees in G. For 2k-regular graphs which are 2k-connected, such as the Cartesian product of a complete graph of order 2k-1 and a cycle, and some Cartesian products of three cycles (for k = 3), the maximum number of completely independent spanning trees contained in these graphs is determined and it turns out that this maximum is not always k.
