- Grid Grove is a neighborhood, with houses organized in m rows of n columns. Houses that are closest to each other are connected by a path (note that this organization follows the definition of a grid graph given in lecture). Assume that m, n > 2. As follows from lecture, Grid Grove has mn houses and 2mn – m -n paths. It is also possible to walk to any house from any other house through some sequence of paths. To save money, the landlords want to get rid of some paths. Calculate D, the maximum number of paths that can be removed from the neighborhood without disconnecting it. Justify your answer.
