ABSTRACT:
The shortest k-dimension paths (k-paths)
between vertices of n-cube are considered on the basis a bijective mapping of
k-faces into words over a finite alphabet. The presentation of such paths is
proposed as (n － k + 1)×n matrix of characters from the same alphabet. A
classification of the paths is founded on numerical invariant as special
partition. The partition consists of n parts, which correspond to columns of the
matrix.
