For every graph G $G$ , let α ( G ) $\alpha (G)$ denote its independence number. What is the minimum of the maximum degree of an induced subgraph of G $G$ with α ( G ) + 1 $\alpha (G)+1$ vertices? We study this question for the n $n$ ‐dimensional Hamming graph over an alphabet of size k $k$ . In this paper, we give a construction to prove that the answer is 1 for all n $n$ and k $k$ with k ≥ 3 $k\ge 3$ . This is an improvement over an earlier work showing that the answer is at most ⌈ n ⌉ $\lceil \sqrt{n}\rceil $ .
