Kirchhoff's theorem: Art, Particular cases and generalizations & Definitions and statement

In the mathematical field of graph theory, Kirchhoff's theorem or Kirchhoff's matrix tree theorem is a theorem about the number of spanning trees in a graph. It states that this number can be computed as any cofactor of the graph's Laplacian matrix. This shows in particular that the number of spanning trees can be computed from the graph data in…
