The Steiner $k$-eccentricity on trees

Combinatorics 2020-08-19 v1

Abstract

We study the Steiner kk-eccentricity on trees, which generalizes the previous one in the paper [X.~Li, G.~Yu, S.~Klav\v{z}ar, On the average Steiner 3-eccentricity of trees, arXiv:2005.10319, 2020]. To support the algorithm, we achieve much stronger properties for the Steiner kk-ecc tree than that in the previous paper. Based on this, a linear time algorithm is devised to calculate the Steiner kk-eccentricity of a vertex in a tree. On the other hand, the lower and upper bounds of the average Steiner kk-eccentricity index of a tree on order nn are established based on a novel technique which is quite different from that in the previous paper but much easier to follow.
