An interconnection network is usually modeled as a graph, in which vertices and edges correspond to processors and communication links, respectively. Connectivity is an important metric for fault tolerance of interconnection networks. A connected graph [Formula: see text] is said to be maximally local-edge-connected if each pair of vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] are connected by [Formula: see text] pairwise edge-disjoint paths. In this paper, we show that the [Formula: see text]-dimensional augmented cube [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-edge-fault-tolerant maximally local-edge-connected and the bound [Formula: see text] is sharp; under the restricted condition that each vertex has at least three fault-free adjacent vertices, [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-edge-fault-tolerant maximally local-edge-connected and the bound [Formula: see text] is sharp; and under the restricted condition that each vertex has at least [Formula: see text] fault-free adjacent vertices, [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-edge-fault-tolerant maximally local-edge-connected. Furthermore, we show that a [Formula: see text]-regular graph [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-fault-tolerant one-to-many maximally local-connected if [Formula: see text] does not contain [Formula: see text] and is super [Formula: see text]-vertex-connected of order 1, a [Formula: see text]-regular graph [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-fault-tolerant one-to-many maximally local-connected if [Formula: see text] does not contain [Formula: see text] and is super [Formula: see text]-vertex-connected of order 1.

In this paper, we give two linear time algorithms for node-to-node fault tolerant routing problem in n-dimensional hypercubes Hn and star graphs Gn. The first algorithm, given at most n−1 arbitrary fault nodes and two non-fault nodes s and t in Hn, finds a fault-free path s→t of length at most [Formula: see text] in O(n) time, where d(s, t) is the distance between s and t. Our second algorithm, given at most n−2 fault nodes and two non-fault nodes s and t in Gn, finds a fault-free path s→t of length at most d(Gn)+3 in O(n) time, where [Formula: see text] is the diameter of Gn. When the time efficiency of finding the routing path is more important than the length of the path, the algorithms in this paper are better than the previous ones.

For any two vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] in a connected graph [Formula: see text], the [Formula: see text] path [Formula: see text] is called a [Formula: see text] triangle free path if no three vertices of [Formula: see text] induce a triangle. The triangle free detour distance [Formula: see text] is the length of a longest [Formula: see text] triangle free path in [Formula: see text]. A [Formula: see text] path of length [Formula: see text] is called a [Formula: see text] triangle free detour. A set [Formula: see text] is called a triangle free detour set of [Formula: see text] if every vertex of [Formula: see text] lies on a [Formula: see text] triangle free detour joining a pair of vertices of [Formula: see text]. The triangle free detour number [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is the minimum order of its triangle free detour sets and any triangle free detour set of order [Formula: see text] is a triangle free detour basis of [Formula: see text]. A triangle free detour set [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is called a minimal triangle free detour set if no proper subset of [Formula: see text] is a triangle free detour set of [Formula: see text]. The upper triangle free detour number [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is the maximum order of its minimal triangle free detour sets and any minimal triangle free detour set of order [Formula: see text] is an upper triangle free detour basis of [Formula: see text]. We determine bounds for it and characterize graphs which realize these bounds. For any connected graph [Formula: see text] of order [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. Also, for any four positive integers [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text], it is shown that there exists a connected graph [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the upper detour number, [Formula: see text] is the upper detour monophonic number and [Formula: see text] is the upper geodetic number of a graph [Formula: see text].

As one of the most fundamental networks for parallel and distributed computation, cycle is suitable for developing simple algorithms with low communication cost. A graph [Formula: see text] is called [Formula: see text]-fault-tolerant edge-pancyclic if after deleting any faulty set [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] vertices and/or edges from [Formula: see text], every correct edge in the resulting graph lies in a cycle of every length from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text], inclusively, where [Formula: see text] is the girth of [Formula: see text], the length of a shortest cycle in [Formula: see text]. The [Formula: see text]-dimensional crossed cube [Formula: see text] is an important variant of the hypercube [Formula: see text], which possesses some properties superior to the hypercube. This paper investigates the fault-tolerant edge-pancyclicity of [Formula: see text], and shows that if [Formula: see text] contains at most [Formula: see text] faulty vertices and/or edges then, for any fault-free edge [Formula: see text] and every length [Formula: see text] from [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text] except [Formula: see text], there is a fault-free cycle of length [Formula: see text] containing the edge [Formula: see text]. The result is optimal in some senses.

The number of Internet-connected devices grows very rapidly, with even fears of running out of available IP addresses. It is clear that the number of sensors follows this trend, thus inducing large sensor networks. It is insightful to make the comparison with the huge number of processors of modern supercomputers. In such large networks, the problem of node faults necessarily arises, with faults often happening in clusters. The tolerance to faults, and especially cluster faults, is thus critical. Furthermore, thanks to its advantageous topological properties, the torus interconnection network has been adopted by the major supercomputer manufacturers of the recent years, thus proving its applicability. Acknowledging and embracing these two technological and industrial aspects, we propose in this paper a node-to-node routing algorithm in an n -dimensional k -ary torus that is tolerant to faults. Not only is this algorithm tolerant to faulty nodes, it also tolerates faulty node clusters. The described algorithm selects a fault-free path of length at most n ( 2 k + ⌊ k / 2 ⌋ − 2 ) with an O ( n 2 k 2 | F | ) worst-case time complexity with F the set of faulty nodes induced by the faulty clusters.

Large scale multiprocessor systems or multicomputer systems, taking interconnection networks as underlying topologies, have been widely used in the big data era. Fault tolerance is becoming an essential attribute in multiprocessor systems as the number of processors is getting larger. A connected graph [Formula: see text] is called strong Menger (edge) connected if, for any two distinct vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], there are [Formula: see text] vertex (edge)-disjoint paths between them. Exchanged hypercube [Formula: see text], as a variant of hypercube [Formula: see text], remains lots of preferable fault tolerant properties of hypercube. In this paper, we show that [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] are strong Menger (edge) connected, respectively. Moreover, as a by-product, for dual cube [Formula: see text], one popular generalization of hypercube, [Formula: see text] is also showed to be strong Menger (edge) connected, where [Formula: see text].
