Spectral conditions for spanning $k$-trees or $k$-ended-trees of $t$-connected graphs

Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$. A spanning $k$-tree of $G$ is a spanning tree with the maximum degree at most $k$, and a spanning $k$-ended-tree of $G$ is a spanning tree at most $k$ leaves, where $k\ge 2$ is an integer. This paper establishes some spectral conditions for the existence of spanning $k$-trees or spanning $k$-ended-trees in $t$-connected graphs, which generalize the results of Fan et al. (2022) and Zhou (2010), and improve the results of Fiedler et al. (2010), Ao et al. (2023) and Ao et al. (2025).
