Hi,

Who can give a formal prove of the correctness of Boruvka's algorithm
for finding the Minimum Spanning Tree?

Thanks !

Hi Joe,

I found a paragraph on the correctness (not in a formal way) in
Algorithm Design, Goodrich/Tamassia, page 370. By the way, the inventor
of this algorithm is called Baruvka, with a small open circle above
the 'o'.

With regards,
