Abstract :
We introduce a new measure of conditional connectivity. Let G be a connected graph. A set of nodes F is said to be a conditional (g, d, k)-cut of G if (1) G-F is disconnected, (2) every node in G-F has at least g good neighbors, (3) degG-F(p) + degG-F(q) ≥ 2g + k for every two distinct nodes p and q in G-F with d(p, q) ≤ d. The (g, d, k)-conditional-connectivity, denoted by Kg, d, k, is the minimum cardinality of a conditional (g, d, k)-cut. Based on these requirements, we obtain K1,1,k and K1,d,1 for hyper cubes.
