Abstract

This paper contains a new algorithm that recognizes whether a given graph Gis a Hamming graph, i.e. a Cartesian product of complete graphs, in O(m)time and O(n 2) space. Here mand ndenote the numbers of edges and vertices of G,respectively. Previously this was only possible in O(mlog n)time. Moreover, we present a survey of other recognition algorithms for Hamming graphs, retracts of Hamming graphs and isometric subgraphs of Hamming graphs. Special emphasis is also given to the bipartite case in which these classes are reduced to binary Hamming graphs, median graphs and partial binary Hamming graphs.
