Sparse hypercube – a minimal \(k\)-line broadcast graph. (English) Zbl 1057.68078

Summary: This paper proposes methods for reducing the maximum degree of vertices in graphs that maintain optimal broadcast time when a vertex can call a vertex at distance at most \(k\) during any time unit. The basic idea behind the proposed construction method is to eliminate edges from binary \(n\)-cubes. We show that, by this approach, the maximum degree of a vertex can be reduced to at most \((2k-1)\lceil\sqrt{\log_2|V|-k}\rceil\), where \(2\leq k<\log_2|V|\), which asymptotically achieves the lower bound provided \(|V|=2^n\) and a constant \(k\).
