Dec 10, 2022 at 7:45 comment added domotorp Yes, I think you're correct.
Dec 10, 2022 at 6:23 comment added Brendan McKay I was wondering if the additional edges can be chosen to be a cycle. Clearly it is impossible if $T$ has vertices of degree 2, but otherwise I think the same proof works if at each step we judiciously choose between adding $ua,vb$ or $ub,va$.
Dec 9, 2022 at 22:05 comment added domotorp Good points - I guess we can fix an edge that closes a cycle of length $g$ with $T$ (such an edge must exist), and never touch that later.
Dec 9, 2022 at 21:57 comment added bof The procedure terminates with a graph whose girth is at least $g$ but how do you know the girth is exactly $g$?
Dec 9, 2022 at 21:55 comment added bof When picking $ab\in E(C)$ you should state that $ab\notin E(T)$ which is of course possible.
