Constructing two completely independent spanning trees in dual-cubes
Abstract
In this paper, we prove the existence of two completely independent spanning trees in the n-dimensional dual-cube Fn, a variant of the hypercube, for every n ≥ 5. To this end, we use the hypercube structure of the clusters of Fn to extend the construction of CIST from the (n−1)-dimensional hypercube to the dual-cube. In addition, we provide a recursive algorithm that builds the two trees while improving their diameters. Finally, we propose a conjecture regarding the existence of k completely independent spanning trees in the dual-cube.
