As a variant of the well-known hypercube, the balanced hypercube $BH_n$ was proposed as a novel interconnection network topology for parallel computing. It is known that $BH_n$ is bipartite. Assume that $S=\{s_1,s_2\}$ and $T=\{t_1,t_2\}$…

This paper considers the problem of many-to-many disjoint paths in the hypercube $Q_n$ with $f$ faulty vertices and obtains the following result. For any integer $k$ with $1\leq k\leq n-2$, any two sets $S$ and $T$ of $k$ fault-free…

The hypercube \( Q_n \) contains a Hamiltonian path joining \( x \) and \( y \) (where $x$ and $y$ from the opposite partite set) containing \( P \) if and only if the induced subgraph of \( P \) is a linear forest, where none of these…

We consider hypercubes with pairwise disjoint faulty edges. An $n$-dimensional hypercube $Q_n$ is an undirected graph with $2^n$ nodes, each labeled with a distinct binary strings of length $n$. The parity of the vertex is 0 if the number…

The balanced hypercube $BH_{n}$, proposed by Wu and Huang, is a variation of the hypercube. The paired 1-disjoint path cover of $BH_{n}$ is the Hamiltonian laceability, which was obtained by Xu et al. in [Appl. Math. Comput. 189 (2007)…

The balanced hypercube $BH_n$, a variant of the hypercube, was proposed as a desired interconnection network topology. It is known that $BH_n$ is bipartite. Assume that $S=\{s_1,s_2,\cdots,s_{2n-2}\}$ and $T=\{t_1,t_2,\cdots,t_{2n-2}\}$ are…

Faulty networks are useful because link or node faults can occur in a network. This paper examines the Hamiltonian properties of hypercubes under certain conditional faulty edges. Let consider the hypercube \( Q_n \), for \( n \geq 5 \) and…

Let $H$ be an $n$-vertex 3-uniform hypergraph such that every pair of vertices is in at least $n/3+o(n)$ edges. We show that $H$ contains two vertex-disjoint tight paths whose union covers the vertex set of $H$. The quantity two here is…

In this paper, we show that for any positive integer $m$ and $k\in [2]$, let $G$ be a $(2m+2k+2)$-connected graph and let $a_1,\ldots , a_m, s, t$ be any distinct vertices of $G$, there are $k$ internally disjoint $s$-$t$ paths $P_1,…

We settle the Path Decomposition Conjecture (P.D.C.) due to Tibor Gallai for minimally connected graphs, i.e. trees. We use this validity for trees and settle the P. D. C. using induction on the number of edges for all connected graphs. We…

We show that the minimal number of skewed hyperplanes that cover the hypercube $\{0,1\}^{n}$ is at least $\frac{n}{2}+1$, and there are infinitely many $n$'s when the hypercube can be covered with $n-\log_{2}(n)+1$ skewed hyperplanes. The…

Aims: Try to prove the $n$-dimensional balanced hypercube $BH_n$ is $(2n-2)$-fault-tolerant-prescribed hamiltonian laceability. Methods: Prove it by induction on $n$. It is known that the assertation holds for $n\in\{1,2\}$. Assume it holds…

Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$. A path decomposition $\mathcal{P}$ of $G$ is a collection of edge-disjoint paths that covers all the edges of $G$. Let $p(G)$ denote the minimum number of paths needed in a path decomposition of $G$. Gallai…

We prove that a connected graph contains a circuit---a closed walk that repeats no edges---through any $k$ prescribed edges if and only if it contains no odd cut of size at most $k$.

We consider the question of when the $n$-dimensional hypercube can be decomposed into paths of length $k$. Mollard and Ramras \cite{MR2013} noted that for odd $n$ it is necessary that $k$ divides $n2^{n-1}$ and that $k\leq n$. Later, Anick…

Every semicomplete multipartite digraph contains a quasi-Hamiltonian path, but the problem of finding a quasi-Hamiltonian path with prescribed start and end vertex is NP-complete even when restricted to semicomplete multipartite digraphs…

We prove a new lower bound for the almost 20 year old problem of determining the smallest possible size of an essential cover of the $n$-dimensional hypercube $\{\pm 1\}^n$, i.e. the smallest possible size of a collection of hyperplanes…

We prove that a complete multipartite graph $K$ with $n>1$ vertices and $m$ edges can be decomposed into edge-disjoint Hamilton paths if and only if $\frac m{n-1}$ is an integer and the maximum degree of $K$ is at most $\frac {2m}{n-1}$.

Ruskey and Savage asked the following question: Does every matching of $Q_{n}$ for $n\geq2$ extend to a Hamiltonian cycle of $Q_{n}$? J. Fink showed that the question is true for every perfect matching, and solved the Kreweras' conjecture.…

A path cover of a graph is a set of disjoint paths so that every vertex in the graph is contained in one of the paths. The path cover number $p(G)$ of graph $G$ is the cardinality of a path cover with the minimum number of paths. Reed in…
