If ▫$f$▫ is a binary word and ▫$d$▫ a positive integer, then the generalized Fibonacci cube ▫$Q_d(f)$▫ is the graph obtained from the ▫$d$▫-cube ▫$Q_d$▫ by removing all the vertices that contain ▫$f$▫ as a factor, while the generalized Lucas cube ▫$Q_d(stackrel{leftharpoondown}{f})$▫ is the graph obtained from ▫$Q_d$▫ by removing all the vertices that have a circulation containing ▫$f$▫ as a factor. The Fibonacci cube ▫$Gamma_d$▫ and the Lucas cube ▫$Lambda_d$▫ are the graphs ▫$Q_d({11})$▫ and ▫$Q_d(stackrel{leftharpoondown}{11})$▫, respectively. It is proved that the connectivity and the edge-connectivity of ▫$Gamma_d$▫ as well as of ▫$Lambda_d$▫ are equal to ▫$leftlfloor frac{d+2}{3}rightrfloor$▫. Connected generalized Lucas cubes are cha...
