摘要
The decay number of a connected graph is defined to be the minimum number of the components of the cotree of the graph. Upper bounds of the decay numbers of graphs are obtained according to their edge connectivities. All the bounds in this paper are tight. Moreover, for each integer k between one and the upper bound, there are infinitely many graphs with the decay number k.
