| Abstract | this paper is to see how a classical and powerful structural device for the study of countable graphs, the notion of a normal spanning tree, can be made available more generally. The existence of such spanning trees, while trivial in the finite case (where they are better known as depth-first search trees), is in general limited to countable graphs. By generalizing the graph theoretical trees involved to order theoretical trees, a concept better suited to express uncountably long `ends', we shall be able to extend the classical existence theorems for normal trees to arbitrary cardinalities, while retaining much of their original strength. |
