Neighbor connectivity of $k$-ary $n$-cubes (1910.12364v1)

Abstract: The neighbor connectivity of a graph $G$ is the least number of vertices such that removing their closed neighborhoods from $G$ results in a graph that is disconnected, complete or empty. If a~graph is used to model the topology of an interconnection network, this means that the failure of a network node causes failures of all its neighbors. We completely determine the neighbor connectivity of $k$-ary $n$-cubes for all $n\ge1$ and $k\ge2$.
