Abstract
The star graph has recently been suggested as an alternative to the hy percube. The star graph has a rich structure and symmetry properties a s well as desirable fault-tolerant characteristics. The star graph's m aximum vertex degree and diameter, viewed as functions of network size , grow less rapidly than the corresponding measures in a hypercube. We investigate the genus of the star graph and compare it with the genus of the hypercube.
