Abstract
Graph connectivity theory is important in network implementations, transportation, network routing and network tolerance, among other things. Separation edges and vertices refer to single points of failure in a network, and so they are often sought-after. Chandramouleeswaran et al. introduced the principle of semiring valued graphs, also known as S-valued symmetry graphs, in 2015. Since then, works on S-valued symmetry graphs such as vertex dominating set, edge dominating set, regularity, etc. have been done. However, the connectivity of S-valued graphs has not been studied. Motivated by this, in this paper, the concept of connectivity in S-valued graphs has been studied. We have introduced the term vertex S-connectivity and edge S-connectivity and arrived some results for connectivity of a complete S-valued symmetry graph, S-path and S-star. Unlike the graph theory, we have observed that the inequality for connectivity kappa(G) <= kappa '(G) <= delta(G) holds in the case of S-valued graphs only when there is a symmetry of the graph as seen in Examples 3-5.
