Abstract

For a set XX of binary words of length hh the daisy cube Qh(X)Q_h(X) is defined as the subgraph of the hypercube QhQ_h induced by the set of all vertices on shortest paths that connect vertices of XX with the vertex 0h0 ^h. A vertex in the intersection of all of these paths is a minimal vertex of a daisy cube. A graph GG isomorphic to a daisy cube admits several isometric embeddings into a hypercube. We show that an isometric embedding is proper if and only if the label 0h0 ^h is assigned to a minimal vertex of GG. This result allows us to devise an algorithm which finds a proper embedding of a graph isomorphic to a daisy cube into a hypercube in linear time.
