Foil 53 Mapping of Hypercubes into Three Dimensional Meshes

From New CPS615 Foils-- B 28 August 95 CPS615 Basic Simulation Track for Computational Science -- Fall Semester 95. by Geoffrey C. Fox


In string e1 e2 e3 e4.......ed, one can write d=d1+d2+d3
Any set of d1 binary indices can be mapped into a one dimensional line with periodic (wrap-around) connections
the remaining d2+d3 indices give other two dimensions
This decomposes hypercube into a mesh with:
    • 2d1 x 2d2 x 2d3 nodes
So Hypercube includes lots of meshes
e.g. d=6 hypercube has 4 by 4 by 4, 8 by 8, 4 by 64, 64 by 1 etc.
So can study one dimension without loss of generality!
