Abstract: | Letk andh be two integers, 0≤h<k. LetG be a connected graph with minimum degree at leastk. The conditionalh-edge-connectivity ofG, denoted by λ(
h
)(G), is defined as the minimum cardinality ⋎S⋎ of a setS of edges inG such thatG-S is disconnected and is of minimum degree at leasth. This type of edge-connectivity is a generalization of the traditional edge-connectivity and can more accurately measure
the fault-tolerance of networks. In this paper, we will first show that λ2(G)≤g(k-2) for ak(≥3)-regular graphG providedG is neitherK
