Abstract

Beineke, Harary, and Ringel discovered a formula for the minimum genus of a torus in which the n-dimensional hypercube graph can be embedded. We give a new proof of the formula by building this surface as a union of certain faces in the hypercube’s 2-skeleton. For odd dimension n, the entire 2-skeleton decomposes into copies of the surface, and the intersection of any two copies is the hypercube graph.
