Arbres avec un nombre maximum de sommets pendants

This article is an attempt to study the following problem: Given a connected graph G, what is the maximum number of vertices of degree 1 of a spanning tree of G? For cubic graphs with n vertices, we prove that this number is bounded by $\text{1}\text{4}\text{n}$ and $\text{1}\text{2}\text{(n ? 2)}$.
