# Bridges in Graph
|
|
|
|
In graph theory, a **bridge**, **isthmus**, **cut-edge**, or **cut arc** is an edge
|
|
of a graph whose deletion increases its number of connected components. Equivalently,
|
|
an edge is a bridge if and only if it is not contained in any cycle. A graph is said
|
|
to be bridgeless or isthmus-free if it contains no bridges.
