Abstract

The ϒ topology[4] suggests many avenues of interesting network formulation due to its irregular distribution of node degree, namely its ability to provide (formula presented) average cost networks[2] with maximum degree Θ (log2 n) and modular scalability[3]. The ϒ network has proven difficult to transform into a regular network though. We present a general form of ϒ network based on powers of r ≥ 2 with diameter (formula presented) and average cost (formula presented) where n = rt ∈ ℝ and t ∈ ℕ with the tradeoff being increased maximum degree from 2t – 1 to 2rt – 2t – r + 1. For applications requiring bounded degree we provide a modified general ϒ construction with maximum degree 2r and diameter (formula presented) while maintaining the order of average cost at (formula presented). This results in a maximum cost of Θ (rt).
