Many-to-many n-disjoint path covers in n-dimensional hypercubes

Embedding of paths have attracted much attention in the parallel processing. Many-to-many communication is one of the most central issues in various interconnection networks. In this paper, we investigate the problem of many-to-many unpaired n-disjoint path covers in the n-dimensional hypercube Q"n and obtain the following result. For any two sets S and T of n vertices in different parts, Q"n has many-to-many unpaired n-disjoint (S,T)-path covers except the case that there exists a vertex v such that N"Q"""n(v)=S and [email protected]?T or N"Q"""n(v)=T and [email protected]?S.
