Summary

Graph theory provides a technique for disabling redundant links of a network in order to avoid the switching loop problem. In this paper, we investigate the use of the duality algebraic criteria to find the spanning trees of some switched planar networks. Based on recursive functions, we give new methods that enumerate the spanning trees of some dual graphs. Our theoretical approach guaranties both simplicity and efficiency when compared with the existing approaches and considering the grid network as an application.
