Abstract

The following graph-embedding question is addressed: given a two-dimensional grid and the smallest hypercube with at least as many nodes as grid points, how can one assign grid points to hypercube nodes (with at most one grid point per node) so as to keep grid neighbors near each other in the cube? An embedding scheme for an infinite class of two-dimensional grids is given that keeps grid neighbors within a distance of two apart.
