Abstract: | An edge e of a graph G is said to be a fixed edge if G−e+e ′≅G implies that e ′=e, and a forced edge if G−e+e ′ is an edge-reconstruction of G implies that e ′=e. In this paper, we use the method of excludable configurations to investigate the fixed edges and the forced edges of series-parallel networks. It is proved that all series-parallel networks contain fixed edges except P 3∨K 1 and P 4∨K 1, and that all series-parallel networks are edge-reconstructible.
