It is shown that for arbitrary two vertices x and y with the distance d in Qn and any set F with at most 2nm3 vertices in Qn m {x,y}, if F contains neither of neighbor-sets of x and y in Qn, then the distance between x and y in Qn m F is vigen byFurthermore, the upper bounds are tight. As an immediately consequence, Qn can tolerate up to 2nm3 vertices failures and remain diameter 4 if n=3 and n+2 if nS4 provided that for each vertex x in Qn, all the neighbors of x do not fail at the same time. This improves Esfahanian's result.展开更多
