Bidiakis cube Bidiakis cube In the mathematical field of graph theory, the Bidiakis cube is a 3-regular graph with 12 vertices and 18 edges. The Bidiakis cube is a cubic Hamiltonian graph and can be defined by the LCF notation [-6,4,-4]. The Bidiakis cube can also be constructed from a cube by adding edges across the top and bottom faces which connect the centres of opposite sides of the faces. The two additional edges need to be perpendicular to each other. With this construction, the Bidiakis cube is a polyhedral graph, and can be realized as a convex polyhedron. Therefore, by Steinitz's
Partial cube "Hamming labeling"; it represents an isometric embedding of the partial cube into a hypercube. was the first to study isometric embeddings of graphs into hypercubes. The graphs that admit such embeddings were characterized by and , and were later named partial cubes. A separate line of research on the same structures, in the terminology of families of sets rather than of hypercube labelings of graphs, was followed by and , among others. Every tree is a partial cube. For, suppose that a tree "T" has "m" edges, and number these edges (arbitrarily) from 0 to "m" − 1. Choose a
