A forest is a graph which has no cycles. The difference between a forest and a tree is that a tree is a connected graph with no cycles, while a forest may be disconnected; thus, every tree is a forest but not every forest is a tree.
An induced subgraph of a graph G is the subgraph obtained by taking some vertices in G and all of the edges between those vertices.
First we prove that if G is a forest, every induced ...
