Disjoint Paths in Folded Hypercubes with Deleting Some Edges

Dan Jin, Hongmei Liu

Abstract



Let u be the smallest degree node in a hypercube network with some faulty edges. Suppose that the number of fault-free edges incident with u is not more than that of the others, and denote this number by k. In this article, we mainly concentrate on the conditional edge-fault-tolerant paths embedding of the n-dimensional hypercube and folded hypercube. In view of this purpose, we prove that there exist k disjoint paths between the smallest degree node and its neighbor which contain all nodes in an n-cube with at most n−2 faulty edges. Based on the result, it has been found that for the smallest degree node and its neighbor there are k internal-disjoint paths between them, which traverse all vertices of an n-dimensional folded cube with at most n − 1 faulty edges.

Disclaimer/Regarding indexing issue:

We have provided the online access of all issues and papers to the indexing agencies (as given on journal web site). It’s depend on indexing agencies when, how and what manner they can index or not. Hence, we like to inform that on the basis of earlier indexing, we can’t predict the today or future indexing policy of third party (i.e. indexing agencies) as they have right to discontinue any journal at any time without prior information to the journal. So, please neither sends any question nor expects any answer from us on the behalf of third party i.e. indexing agencies.Hence, we will not issue any certificate or letter for indexing issue. Our role is just to provide the online access to them. So we do properly this and one can visit indexing agencies website to get the authentic information. Also: DOI is paid service which provided by a third party. We never mentioned that we go for this for our any journal. However, journal have no objection if author go directly for this paid DOI service.
