The balanced hypercube, BH n , is a variant of hypercube Q n . Zhou et al. [Inform. Sci. 300 (2015) 20-27] proposed an interesting problem that whether there is a fault-free Hamiltonian cycle in BH n with each vertex incident to at least two fault-free edges. In this paper, we consider this problem and show that each fault-free edge lies on a fault-free Hamiltonian cycle in BH n after no more than 4n − 5 faulty edges occur if each vertex is incident with at least two fault-free edges for all n ≥ 2. Our result is optimal with respect to the maximum number of tolerated edge faults.
A k-container C(u, v) of a graph G is a set of k internally disjoint paths between u and v. A k-container C(u, v) of G is a k * -container if it is a spanning subgraph of G. A graph G is k *connected if there exists a k * -container between any two different vertices of G. A k-regular graph G is super spanning connected if G is i * -container for all 1 ≤ i ≤ k. In this paper, we prove that the arrangement graph A n,k is super spanning connected if n ≥ 4 and n − k ≥ 2.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
