A \(\Delta\)-subgraph of a simple graph G is the subgraph of G induced by the vertices of maximum degree \(\Delta =\Delta (G)\). We show that a non- empty simple graph H can be a \(\Delta\)-subgraph of a graph G, which is critical with respect to the chromatic index, if and only if H has not vertices of degree 0 or 1.
