We develop the work of Christandl et al. [M. Christandl, N. Datta, T. C. Dorlas, A. Ekert, A. Kay, and A. J. Landahl, Phys. Rev. A 71, 032312 (2005)], to show how a d-hypercube homogenous network can be dressed by additional links to perfectly route quantum information between any given input and output nodes in a duration which is independent of the routing chosen and, surprisingly, size of the network.

We consider a star-network of $n=n_0+n_p$ spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ particles, where interaction between $n_0$ central spins and $n_p$ peripheral spins are of the XYZ-type. In the limit $n_0/n_p\ll 1$, we show that for odd $n$, the ground state is doubly degenerate, while for even $n$, the energy gap becomes negligible when $n$ is large, inducing an \emph{effective} double degeneracy. In the same limit, we show that for vanishing $xy$-anisotropy $γ$, bipartite entanglement on the peripheral spins computed using either a partial trace-based, or a measurement-based approach exhibits a logarithmic growth with $n_p$, where the sizes of the partitions are typically $\sim n_p/2$. This feature disappears for $γ\neq 0$, which we refer to as the \emph{anisotropy effect}. Interestingly, when the system is taken out of equilibrium by the introduction of a magnetic field of constant strength on all spins, the time-averaged bipartite entanglement on the periphery at the long-time limit exhibits a logarithmic growth with $n_p$ irrespective of the value of $γ$. We further study the $n_0/n_p\gg 1$ and $n_0/n_p\rightarrow 1$ limits of the model, and show that the behaviour of bipartite peripheral entanglement is qualitatively different from that of the $n_0/n_p\ll 1$ limit.
