Consider a graph G = G(k, d, s) with the vertex set V = {v : v = (v1, . . . , vk); vi ∈ {1,2, . . . , d}(1 ≤ i ≤ k)}, the set of all k-letter “words” over an “alphabet” of size d. Furthermore, there will be an edge between vertices v 6 w iff the last k − s letters of v are the same as the first k − s letters of w or the first k − s letters of v are the same as the last k − s letters of w. In this paper, we show that G is Hamiltonian for all non-trivial values of the parameters, and obtain exact values for its chromatic number when s ≥ k/2 and bounds on its chromatic number when s < k/2.
