Abstract

The interconnection network considered in this paper is the k-ary n-cube that is an attractive variance of the well-known hypercube. Many interconnection networks can be viewed as the subclasses of the k-ary n-cubes include the cycle, the torus and the hypercube. A bipartite graph is Hamiltonian laceable if there exists a Hamiltonian path joining every two vertices which are in distinct partite sets. A bipartite graph G is strongly Hamiltonian laceable if it is Hamiltonian laceable and there exists a path of length N - 2 joining each pair of vertices in the same partite set, where N=|V(G)|. We prove that the k-ary n-cube is strongly Hamiltonian laceable for k is even and n=2.
