  text: We prove lower bounds on the complexity of maintaining fully dynamic k -edge
    or k -vertex connectivity in plane graphs and in (k-1) -vertex connected graphs.
    We show an amortized lower bound of Ω (log n / {k (log log n} + log b)) per edge
    insertion, deletion, or query operation in the cell probe model, where b is the
    word size of the machine and n is the number of vertices in G . We also show an
    amortized lower bound of Ω (log n /(log log n + log b)) per operation for fully
    dynamic planarity testing in embedded graphs. These are the first lower bounds
    for fully dynamic connectivity problems.
