**Context:** Given a adjacency matrix A of a  **$r$-regular graph $G$ (not complete graph $K_{r+1}$)** . $G$ is $k$ connected. 

The matrix A can be divided into 4 sub-matrices based on adjacency of vertex $x \in G$.
$A_x$ is the adjacency matrix of the graph $(G-x)$, where $C$ is the adjacency  matrix of the graph created by vertices which are not adjacent to $x$, and $D$ is the adjacency matrix of the graph created by vertices which are adjacent to $x$. $C,D$ are sub-graphs(regular) of graph $G$, $|V(C)|>|V(D)|$ where $|V(C)|,|V(D)|$ are total vertices number of graph $C,D$ respectively.
$$ A_x 
=
\left( \begin{array}{ccc}
C & E  \\
E^{T} & D \\
\end{array} \right) 
$$

again, this process can be done recursively, where $A_{y+1}=D_y$, $y=$ iteration number of the recursive process. 
$$ A_yx 
=
\left( \begin{array}{ccc}
C_y & E_y  \\
E_y^{T} & D_{y} \\
\end{array} \right) 
$$

$A_x$(=$A_1x$) is the matrix of 1st iteration, for 2nd iteration, $A$ matrix would be $A_2x$. $x$ is always a vertex of $ A_yx $.

This recursive process can be done a maximum of $\log_2(|V(G)|)$ times.

**Question:**  In this recursive process (***Given that, $C_y , D_y$ are always regular in this recursive process, for each iteration $y$***), 

1) Is it possible to have an $E_y$ matrix as a zero matrix, i.e., is it possible to have disconnected sub-graphs $C_y,D_y$ under the given condition that $G$ is $k$ connected and $C_y , D_y$ are always regular in this recursive process?

2) If possible, then what is the maximum number of happening this incident (e.g $|V(G)|/2$ times maximum)?
