Abstract

We describe how to embed an arbitrary binary tree with dilation 3 and O(1) expansion into a hypercube. (In fact, we show that all binary trees can be embedded into their optimal hypercube with dilation 3, provided that all binary trees with no more than B vertices, for some fixed number B, can be embedded with dilation 3.) We also show how to embed all binary trees into their optimal hypercube with dilation 5.

The work of this author was partly done during a visit to UTD and was supported by a grant from the German Research Association (DFG).
