Spanning trees of the hypercube Q n have been recently studied by several authors. In this paper, we construct spanning trees of Q n which are caterpillars and establish quantitative bounds for a caterpillar to span Q n . As a corollary, we disprove a conjecture of Harary and Lewinter on the length

We present an embedding of generalized ladders as subgraphs into the hypercube. Through an embedding of caterpillars into ladders, we obtain an embedding of caterpillars into the hypercube. In this way we get almost all known results concerning the embedding of caterpillars into the hypercube. In ad
We prove that the d-dimensional hypercube, Qd, with n ----2 d vertices, contains a spanning tree with at least 1 log 2 n o n -t-2 leaves. This improves upon the bound implied by a more general result on spanning trees in graphs with minimum degree 5, which gives (1 -O(loglogn)/log 2 n)n as a lower b
