    Maximal hypercubes in Fibonacci and Lucas cubes

    Full text link
    The Fibonacci cube Γn\Gamma_n is the subgraph of the hypercube induced by the binary strings that contain no two consecutive 1's. The Lucas cube Λn\Lambda_n is obtained from Γn\Gamma_n by removing vertices that start and end with 1. We characterize maximal induced hypercubes in Γn\Gamma_n and Λn\Lambda_n and deduce for any p≤np\leq n the number of maximal pp-dimensional hypercubes in these graphs

    On Disjoint hypercubes in Fibonacci cubes

    Full text link
    The {\em Fibonacci cube} of dimension nn, denoted as Γ_n\Gamma\_n, is the subgraph of nn-cube Q_nQ\_n induced by vertices with no consecutive 1's. We study the maximum number of disjoint subgraphs in Γ_n\Gamma\_n isomorphic to Q_kQ\_k, and denote this number by q_k(n)q\_k(n). We prove several recursive results for q_k(n)q\_k(n), in particular we prove that q_k(n)=q_k−1(n−2)+q_k(n−3)q\_{k}(n) = q\_{k-1}(n-2) + q\_{k}(n-3). We also prove a closed formula in which q_k(n)q\_k(n) is given in terms of Fibonacci numbers, and finally we give the generating function for the sequence {q_k(n)}_n=0∞\{q\_{k}(n)\}\_{n=0}^{ \infty}
