Two Hamiltonian paths are said to befully independentif theith vertices of both paths are distinct for allibetween 1 andn, wherenis the number of vertices of the given graph. Hamiltonian paths in a set are said to bemutually fully independentif two arbitrary Hamiltonian paths in the set are fully independent. On the other hand, two Hamiltonian cycles areindependent starting atvif both cycles start at a common vertexvand theith vertices of both cycles are distinct for allibetween 2 andn. Hamiltonian cycles in a set are said to bemutually independent starting atvif any two different cycles in the set are independent starting atv. Then-dimensional hypercube is widely used as the architecture for parallel machines. In this paper, we study its fault-tolerant property and show that ann-dimensional hypercube with at mostn−2 faulty edges can embed a set of fault-free mutually fully independent Hamiltonian paths between two adjacent vertices, and can embed a set of fault-free mutually independent Hamiltonian cycles starting at a given vertex. The number of tolerable faulty edges is optimal with respect to a worst case.
