A minimum spanning tree (MST) is a connected, acyclic subgraph that spans all vertices of a weighted graph and has the minimum possible total edge weight.
Conditions: The underlying graph must be weighted.; The graph must be connected for a spanning tree to exist.; The MST minimizes the sum of selected edge weights.; The MST contains no cycles.
