Node-pancyclicity and edge-pancyclicity of hypercube variants
Twisted cubes, crossed cubes, Mobius cubes, and locally twisted cubes are some of the widely studied hypercube variants. The 4-pancyclicity of twisted cubes, crossed cubes, Mobius cubes, locally twisted cubes and the 4-edge-pancyclicity of twisted cubes, crossed cubes, Mobius cubes are proven in [C.P. Chang, J.N. Wang, L.H. Hsu, Topological properties of twisted cube, Inform. Sci. 113 (1999) 147-167; C.P. Chang, T.Y. Sung, L.H. Hsu, Edge congestion and topological properties of crossed cubes, IEEE Trans. Parall. Distr. 11 (1) (2000) 64-80; J. Fan, Hamilton-connectivity and cycle embedding of the Mobius cubes, Inform. Process. Lett. 82 (2002) 113-117; X. Yang, G.M. Megson, D.J.

It should be noted that 4-edge-pancyclicity implies 4-node-pancyclicity which further implies 4-pancyclicity. In this paper, we outline an approach to prove the 4-edge-pancyclicity of some hypercube variants and we prove in particular that Mobius cubes and locally twisted cubes are 4-edge-pancyclic.
