Abstract

The dragonfly network is a hierarchical network with a low diameter and high throughput, which uses a set of high-cardinality routers to increase the effective cardinality of the network. The Hamiltonian property is instrumental in communication networks. In this paper, we study the Hamiltonian properties of the logical graph of the dragonfly network, denoted by D(nhg), where n, h, and g represent the number of vertices in each group, the number of edges that each vertex connects to other groups, and the number of groups, respectively. Firstly, we show that there exists a Hamiltonian cycle and propose an O(g) algorithm for constructing a Hamiltonian cycle in D(nhg) when \(n \ge 2\) and \(h \ge 1\). Then, we prove that D(nhg) is Hamiltonian-connected for \(n \ge 4\) and \(h \ge 2\).
