摘要
In 1932 Whitney showed that a graph G with order n >= 3 is 2-connected if and only if any two vertices of G are connected by at least two internally -disjoint paths. The above result and its proof have been used in some Graph Theory books, such as in Bondy and Murty's well-known Graph Theory with Applications. In this note we give a much simple proof of Whitney's Theorem.
