Abstract

A cyclic edge-cut of a graph G is an edge set, the removal of which separates two cycles. If G has a cyclic edge-cut, then it is called cyclically separable. For a cyclically separable graph G, the cyclic edge-connectivity 驴 c (G) is the cardinality of a minimum cyclic edge-cut of G. We call a graph super cyclically edge-connected, if the removal of any minimum cyclic edge-cut results in a component which is a shortest cycle. In this paper, we show that a connected vertex-transitive or edge-transitive graph is super cyclically edge-connected if either G is cubic with girth g(G)驴7, or G has minimum degree 驴(G)驴4 and girth g(G)驴6.
