This approach involves using Kruskal's algorithm to find the Minimum Spanning Tree. First, sort all edges by weight. Then, use a Union-Find data structure to maintain and check connectivity of the nodes as edges are added to the MST. Critical edges are those whose exclusion from the MST will increase its total weight, whereas pseudo-critical edges are those that can be in any MST when forced to be present.
The time complexity is O(E log E), where E is the number of edges, mainly due to sorting edges. Space complexity is O(V), where V is the number of vertices, due to the Union-Find structure.

Using the concept of Kruskal's algorithm, this C++ solution sorts edges based on weights and applies a Union-Find structure to determine MST connectivity by iterating through edges and uniting components. Critical edges are assessed by omitting them and checking if the exclusion increases the MST weight, whereas pseudo-critical edges are checked by forcing their inclusion.
This approach leverages Kruskal's algorithm to build MSTs while testing each edge's criticality and pseudo-criticality. We initially use Kruskal's algorithm to determine the MST and its weight without any edge removal. We then experiment with excluding and mandatorily including each edge to ascertain its nature: critical or pseudo-critical.
Steps:
Time Complexity: O(E^2 * log(E)) where E is the number of edges, due to sorting and constructing MST for each edge.
Space Complexity: O(E + V) where E is the number of edges and V is the number of vertices used for storing edges and union-find data structure.

This approach focuses on constructing subsets of edges that definitely belong or don't belong in the MST. By manipulating combinations of edges and recalculating the MST weight, this approach checks the necessity of each edge.
Steps:
Time Complexity: O(E^2 * log(E)) due to sorting edges and iterating for each edge's condition.
Space Complexity: O(E + V) for storing edges and union-find structure during operations.

This Python solution employs a Union-Find data structure for the union and find operations required in Kruskal's algorithm. The function `kruskal()` is defined to calculate the MST's weight, optionally excluding or mandatorily including certain edges. Initially, we compute the MST's weight without excluding any edge. Thereafter, each edge is tested for criticality by checking if excluding it increases the MST's weight. For pseudo-critical checking, we ensure the edge is included first and verify if the MST's weight remains unchanged. This solution efficiently identifies the critical and pseudo-critical edges.
This C++ solution effectively uses the Union-Find data structure for Kruskal's algorithm to determine edge connectivity. It manages edge inclusion/exclusion flexibly, ensuring optimal MST weights are computed to ascertain the critical or pseudo-critical nature of edges. Comparison of MST weight with and without specific edges indicates their status. This solution demonstrates high proficiency in handling complex graph structures using classical algorithms.
