We investigate the randomized decision tree complexity of a specific class of read-once threshold functions. A read-once threshold formula can be defined by a rooted tree, every internal node of which is labeled by a threshold function…

For certain random variables that arise as limits of functionals of random finite trees, we obtain precise asymptotics for the logarithm of the right-hand tail. Our results are based on the facts (i) that the random variables we study can…

We investigate the AC conductivity of binary random impedance networks, with emphasis on its dependence on the ratio of the complex conductances of both phases. We propose an algorithm to determine the conductance of a finite network, in…

In our previous work, we introduced the random $k$-cut number for rooted graphs. In this paper, we show that the distribution of the $k$-cut number in complete binary trees of size $n$, after rescaling, is asymptotically a periodic function…

We prove that the treewidth of an Erd\"{o}s-R\'{e}nyi random graph $\rg{n, m}$ is, with high probability, greater than $\beta n$ for some constant $\beta > 0$ if the edge/vertex ratio $\frac{m}{n}$ is greater than 1.073. Our lower bound…

Let $G=(V_G, E_G)$ be a simple connected graph. The eccentric distance sum of $G$ is defined as $\xi^{d}(G) = \sum_{v\in V_G}\varepsilon_{G}(v)D_{G}(v)$, where $\varepsilon_G(v)$ is the eccentricity of the vertex $v$ and $D_G(v) =…

We investigate the (generalized) Walsh decomposition of point-to-point effective resistances on countable random electric networks with i.i.d. resistances. We show that it is concentrated on low levels, and thus point-to-point effective…

We consider a branching random walk on a $d$-ary tree of height $n$ ($n \in \mathbb{N}$), under the presence of a hard wall which restricts each value to be positive, where $d$ is a natural number satisfying $d\geqslant2$. The question of…

The {\sc Directed Maximum Leaf Out-Branching} problem is to find an out-branching (i.e. a rooted oriented spanning tree) in a given digraph with the maximum number of leaves. In this paper, we obtain two combinatorial results on the number…

A graph can be regarded as an electrical network in which each edge is a resistor. This point of view relates combinatorial quantities, such as the number of spanning trees, to electrical ones such as effective resistance. The second and…

Imitating a recently introduced invariant of trees, we initiate the study of the inducibility of $d$-ary trees (rooted trees whose vertex outdegrees are bounded from above by $d\geq 2$) with a given number of leaves. We determine the exact…

This paper extends the definitions of effective resistance and effective conductance to characterize the overall relation (positive coupling or antagonism) between any two disjoint sets of nodes in a signed graph. It generalizes the…

A recursive function on a tree is a function in which each leaf has a given value, and each internal node has a value equal to a function of the number of children, the values of the children, and possibly an explicitly specified random…

The total reciprocal edge-eccentricity is a novel graph invariant with vast potential in structure activity/property relationships. This graph invariant displays high discriminating power with respect to both biological activity and…

We consider the randomly biased random walk on trees in the slow movement regime as in [HS16], whose potential is given by a branching random walk in the boundary case. We study the heavy range up to the $n$-th return to the root, i.e., the…

Barret, Evans, and Francis conjectured that if $G$ is the straight linear 3-tree with $n$ vertices and $H$ is the straight linear 3-tree with $n+1$ vertices then \[\lim_{n\rightarrow \infty} r_{H} (1, n+1) - r_G(1,n) = \frac{1}{14},\] where…

In this draft we prove an interesting structural property related to the problem of computing {\em all the best swap edges} of a {\em tree spanner} in unweighted graphs. Previous papers show that the maximum stretch factor of the tree where…

We obtain assumption-free, non-asymptotic, uniform bounds on the product of the height and the width of uniformly random trees with a given degree sequence, conditioned Bienaym\'e trees and simply generated trees. We show that for a tree of…

The resiliency of a network is its ability to remain \emph{effectively} functioning also when any of its nodes or links fails. However, to reduce operational and set-up costs, a network should be small in size, and this conflicts with the…

Effective resistance is a distance between vertices of a graph that is both theoretically interesting and useful in applications. We study a variant of effective resistance called the biharmonic distance. While the effective resistance…
