A Hamiltonian Decomposition of 5-star
نویسندگان
چکیده
Star graphs are Cayley graphs of symmetric groups of permutations, with transpositions as the generating sets. A star graph is a preferred interconnection network topology to a hypercube for its ability to connect a greater number of nodes with lower degree. However, an attractive property of the hypercube is that it has a Hamiltonian decomposition, i.e. its edges can be partitioned into disjoint Hamiltonian cycles, and therefore a simple routing can be found in the case of an edge failure. The existence of Hamiltonian cycles in Cayley graphs has been known for some time. So far, there are no published results on the much stronger condition of the existence of Hamiltonian decompositions. In this paper, we give a construction of a Hamiltonian decomposition of the star graph 5-star of degree 4, by defining an automorphism for 5-star and a Hamiltonian cycle which is edge-disjoint with its image under the automorphism. Keywords—interconnection networks; paths and cycles; graphs and groups.

On Edge-Decomposition of Cubic Graphs into Copies of the Double-Star with Four Edges
A tree containing exactly two non-pendant vertices is called a double-star. Let $k_1$ and $k_2$ be two positive integers. The double-star with degree sequence $(k_1+1, k_2+1, 1, ldots, 1)$ is denoted by $S_{k_1, k_2}$. It is known that a cubic graph has an $S_{1,1}$-decomposition if and only if it contains a perfect matching. In this paper, we study the $S_{1,2}$-decomposit...
متن کاملThe property of edge-disjoint Hamiltonian cycles in transposition networks and hypercube-like networks
The presence of edge-disjoint Hamiltonian cycles provides an advantage when implementing algorithms that require a ring structure by allowing message traffic to be spread evenly across the network. Edge-disjoint Hamiltonian cycles also provide the edge-fault tolerant hamiltonicity of an interconnection network. In this paper, we first study the property of edge-disjoint Hamiltonian cycles in tr...

In this paper, we have considered that the strange-star consists of quark matter from its center to surface. For quark matter, we have used two models, the MIT bag model and string-flip like model. In the bag model, the energy of the system has been considered the kinetic energy of the particles of system in addition to a constant B. We have considered two states for B, one of them is constant...
متن کاملDistinct edge geodetic decomposition in graphs
Let G=(V,E) be a simple connected graph of order p and size q. A decomposition of a graph G is a collection π of edge-disjoint subgraphs G_1,G_2,…,G_n of G such that every edge of G belongs to exactly one G_i,(1≤i ≤n). The decomposition 〖π={G〗_1,G_2,…,G_n} of a connected graph G is said to be a distinct edge geodetic decomposition if g_1 (G_i )≠g_1 (G_j ),(1≤i≠j≤n). The maximum cardinality of π...
متن کامل3-Perfect hamiltonian decomposition of the complete graph
Let n ≥ 5 be an odd integer and K n the complete graph on n vertices. Let i be an integer with 2 ≤ i ≤ (n − 1)/2. A hamiltonian decomposition H of K n is called i-perfect if the set of the chords at distance i of the hamiltonian cycles in H is the edge set of K n. We show that there exists a 3-perfect hamiltonian decomposition of K n for all odd n ≥ 7.
