I cannot think why you would use iterative deepening to solve this question.
Since all the node have to be connected you must search atleast n nodes deep.
If you start of with a connected graph and attempt to iterativley improve up to some number k, this seems more like a local search problem. Maybe I am missing something, if someone can tell me why you would use iterative depth first search for this problem please comment.

Could be for edge swapping? edge swapping are iterative improvements to TSP

Yes, but wouldn't edge swaping be categorized as an iterative local search rather than iterative deepening? Perhaps I just have my terminology wrong.

I don't have answer, I am just like you looking what can be use as level.
Perhaps, when you swap, you don't know the quality of swap until you swap more.
