Layer structure of De Bruijn and Kautz digraphs. An application to deflection routing

In the main part of this paper we present polynomial expressions for the cardinalities of some sets of interest of the nice distance-layer structure of the well-known De Bruijn and Kautz digraphs. More precisely, given a vertex v, let Si⋆ (v) be the set of vertices at distance i from v. We show that...

Shrnutí:In the main part of this paper we present polynomial expressions for the cardinalities of some sets of interest of the nice distance-layer structure of the well-known De Bruijn and Kautz digraphs. More precisely, given a vertex v, let Si⋆ (v) be the set of vertices at distance i from v. We show that |Si⋆(v)|=di−ai−1di−1−⋯−a1d−a0, where d is the degree of the digraph and the coefficients ak∈{0,1} are explicitly calculated. Analogously, let w be a vertex adjacent from v such that Si⋆(v)∩Sj⁎(w)≠∅ for some j. We prove that |Si⋆(v)∩Sj⁎(w)|=di−bi−1di−1−…−b1d−b0, where the coefficients bt∈{0,1} are determined from the coefficients ak of the polynomial expression of |Si⋆(v)|. An application to deflection routing in De Bruijn and Kautz networks serves as motivation for our study. It is worth-mentioning that our analysis can be extended to other families of digraphs on alphabet or to general iterated line digraphs.
