Star-product graphs are a natural extension of the Cartesian product, but have not been well-studied. We show that many important established and emerging network topologies, including HyperX, SlimFly, BundleFly, PolarStar, mesh, and torus, are in fact star-product graphs. While this connection was known for BundleFly and PolarStar, it was not for the others listed. We extend a method of constructing maximal and near-maximal sets of edge-disjoint spanning trees on Cartesian products to the star product, thus obtain maximal or near-maximal sets of edge-disjoint spanning trees on new networks of importance, where such sets can improve bandwidth of collective operations and therefore accelerate many important workloads in high-performance computing. |
