Trees, meshes, and hypercubes are readily specifiedand mapped by undergraduate-level mathematical methods. Hypercubevariations, such as cube-connected-cycle graphs, wrapped butterfly graphs,shuffle-exchange graphs, and deBruijn graphs are specified as Cayley graphsand group-action graphs (``GAG's'') for wreath products of cyclic groups.(See Rosenberg [Ro90] and Leighton [Le92].)<P>The <i> voltage graph</i> construction (see Gross and Tucker [GrTu87]), whichis my combinatorial abstraction of a Riemann surface, was originallyintroduced in order to simplify the specification of networks and theirlayouts on surfaces. More recently, my work has been concerned withextending the algebraic specification of the networks to the representationof guest-host relationships between two networks, by modeling it as avoltage graph morphism, that is, as a mapping from one voltage graph toanother.<P>For one example of an application, my topological techniques and algebraicformulas for measuring load, congestion, and dilation of guest-hostrelationships readily reduce the representation of a cube-connected cyclenetwork into a wrapped butterfly network to specifying a graph functionfrom a circular ladder to a doubled cycle. For another, these techniquesand formulas reduce the representation of a shuffle exchange network in adeBruijn network to specifying a graph function from the bouquet<!WA11><IMG ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="" SRC="http://www.cs.columbia.edu/info/research-guide/html/img5.gif"> to itself. The <i> bouquet</i> <!WA12><IMG ALIGN=MIDDLE ALT="" SRC="http://www.cs.columbia.edu/info/research-guide/html/img6.gif"> is defined tobe the graph with one vertex and <b>n</b> self-loops.<P>I am presently working on voltage graph morphism lifting in collaborationwith Jianer Chen (of Texas A&M). David Seidman (of IBM and EE Dept.) hasalso begun work with me on this topic.<P><P><P><BR> <HR><P><ADDRESS><I>Sabah S. al-Binali <BR>Fri Sep 22 16:39:42 EDT 1995</I></ADDRESS></BODY>
