A connected graph G is said to be arbitrarily partitionable (AP for short) if for every partition (n1, . . ., np) of |V (G)| there exists a partition (V1, . . ., Vp) of V (G) such that each Vi induces a connected subgraph of G on ni vertices. Some stronger versions of this property were introduced, namely the ones of being online arbitrarily partitionable and recursively arbitrarily partitionable (OL-AP and R-AP for short, respectively), in which the subgraphs induced by a partition of G must not only be connected but also fulfil additional conditions. In this paper, we point out some structural properties of OL-AP and R-AP graphs with connectivity 2. In particular, we show that deleting a cut pair of these graphs results in a graph with a bounded number of components, some of whom have a small number of vertices. We obtain these results by studying a simple class of 2-connected graphs called balloons.
Keywords: online arbitrarily partitionable graph, recursively arbitrarily partitionable graph, graph with connectivity 2, balloon graph
