For any pair of vertices $u$ and $v$ of the connected graph $G$, if they are connected by $\\min \\{ \\deg_G(u),\\deg_G(v)\\}$ edge-disjoint paths, then $G$ is strong Menger edge connected (SM-$\\lambda$ for short). The conditional edge-fault-tolerance about the SM-$ \\lambda$ property of $G$, written $sm_\\lambda^r(G)$, is the maximum value of $m$ such that $G-F$ is still SM-$\\lambda$ for any edge subset $F$ with $|F|\\leq m$ and $\\delta(G-F)\\geq r$, where $\\delta(G-F)$ is the minimum degree of $G-F$. Previously, most of the exact value for $sm_\\lambda^r(G)$ is aimed at some well-known networks when $r\\leq 2$, and a few of the lower bounds on some well-known networks for $r\\geq 3$. In this paper, we firstly determine the exact value of $sm_\\lambda^r(G)$ on class of hypercube-like networks (HL-networks for short, including hypercubes, twisted cubes, crossed cubes etc.) for a general $r$, that is, $sm_\\lambda^r(G_n)=2^r(n-r)-n$ for every $G_n\\in HL_n$, where $n\\geq 3$ and $1\\leq r \\leq n-2$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-09-25T02:52:21.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "hypercube-like networks", "exact value", "well-known networks", "strong menger edge", "great significance" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
