A new proof of Balinski's theorem on the connectivity of polytopes
Abstract
Balinski (1961) proved that the graph of a d-dimensional convex polytope is d-connected. We provide a new proof of this result. Our proof provides details on the nature of a separating set with exactly d vertices; some of which appear to be new.
