The Spectra of Manhattan Street Networks
نویسندگان
چکیده
The multidimensional Manhattan street networks constitute a family of digraphs with many interesting properties, such as vertex symmetry (in fact they are Cayley digraphs), easy routing, Hamiltonicity, and modular structure. From the known structural properties of these digraphs, we determine their spectra, which always contain the spectra of hypercubes. In particular, in the standard (two-dimensional) case it is shown that their line digraph structure imposes the presence of the zero eigenvalue with a large multiplicity.

A new operation on digraphs : the Manhattan product
We give a formal definition of a new product of bipartite digraphs, the Manhattan product, and we study some of its main properties. It is shown that if all the factors of the above product are (directed) cycles, then the digraph obtained is a Manhattan street network. To this respect, it is proved that many properties of these networks, such as high symmetries and the presence of Hamiltonian c...
متن کاملThe Manhattan product of digraphs
We study the main properties of a new product of bipartite digraphs which we call Manhattan product. This product allows us to understand the subjacent product in the Manhattan street networks and can be used to built other networks with similar good properties. It is shown that if all the factors of such a product are (directed) cycles, then the digraph obtained is a Manhattan street network, ...
متن کاملOptimal Broadcasting in 2-Dimensional Manhattan Street Networks
ABSTRACT Broadcasting is the process of disseminating a message from a node of a communication network to all other nodes as quickly as possible. In this paper we consider Manhattan Street Networks (MSNs) which are mesh-structured, toroidal, directed, regular networks such that locally they resemble the geographical topology of the avenues and streets of Manhattan. Previous work on these networ...

4*h Abstmet-Two recent topologies-Manhattan Street Network (MSN) and HR4-Net (or 2-D Torus)-proposed for metropolitan areas are primanly mesh connected networks. In this brief contribution, we compare the average distance, the diameter, the terminal reliability, and the cost. Simulation results indicate that they are fairly close in performance, while the MSN is observed to be more cost-effecti...
