In this paper, we consider the problem of a fault- free Hamiltonian cycle passing through a prescribed linear forest （i.e., pairwise vertex-disjoint paths） in the 3-ary n-cube Qn^3 with faulty edges. The following result is obtained. Let E0 （≠θ） be a linear forest and F （≠θ） be a set of faulty edges in Q3 such that E0∩ F = 0 and ｜E0｜ ＋｜F｜ ≤ 2n - 2. Then all edges of E0 lie on a Hamiltonian cycle in Qn^3- F, and the upper bound 2n - 2 is sharp.展开更多

The linear arboricity la （G） of a graph G is the minimum number of linear forests which partition the edge set E（G） of G. The Cartesian product G□H of two graphs G and H is defined as the graph with vertex set V（G□H） = {（u, v）｜ u ∈V（G）, v∈V（H） } and edge set E（G□H） = { （ u, x） （ v, Y）｜u=v and xy∈E（H）, or uv∈E（G） and x=y}. Let Pm and Cm,, respectively, denote the path and cycle on m vertices and K, denote the complete graph on n vertices. It is proved that （Km□Pm）=[n＋1/2]for m≥2,la（Km□Cm）=[n＋2/2],and la（Km□Km）=[n＋m-1/2]. The methods to decompose these graphs into linear forests are given in the proofs. Furthermore, the linear arboricity conjecture is true for these classes of graphs.展开更多
