We obtain sharp lower and upper bounds for the number of maximal (under inclusion) independent sets in trees with fixed number of vertices and diameter. All extremal trees are described up to isomorphism.
We give two consistent constructions of trees $T$ whose finite power $T^{n+1}$ is sharply different from $T^n$: 1. An $\aleph_1$-tree $T$ whose interval topology $X_T$ is perfectly normal, but $(X_T)^2$ is not even countably metacompact. 2.…
We explicitly determine the automorphism groups of all self-similar trees (a.k.a. trees with finitely many cone types). We show that any such automorphism group is a direct limit of certain finite products of finite symmetric groups, which…
A hereditarily indecomposable tree-like continuum without the fixed point property is constructed. The example answers a question of Knaster and Bellamy.
We investigate isometric embeddings of finite metric trees into $(\mathbb{R}^n,d_{1})$ and $( \mathbb{R}^n, d_{\infty})$. We prove that a finite metric tree can be isometrically embedded into $(\mathbb{R}^n,d_{1})$ if and only if the number…
We consider an infinite sequence of rooted trees naturally emerging in a number-theoretical context. We advance some ideas on its structure by discussing some elementary properties. Some of those properties are shown to be related to…
We generalise structure tree theory, which is based on removing finitely many edges, to removing finitely many vertices. This gives a significant generalization of Tutte's tree decomposition of 2-connected graphs into 3-connected blocks.…
A graph $G$ is asymmetrizable if it has a set of vertices whose setwise stablizer only consists of the identity automorphism. The motion $m$ of a graph is the minimum number of vertices moved by any non-identity automorphism. It is known…
We investigate relations between the pseudo-orbit-tracing property, topological stability and openness for tree-shifts. We prove that a tree-shift is of finite type if and only if it has the pseudo-orbit-tracing property which implies that…
We study isomorphism invariant point processes of $\mathbb{R}^d$ whose groups of symmetries are almost surely trivial. We define a 1-ended, locally finite tree factor on the points of the process, that is, a mapping of the point…
A few notes about infinite trees in a descriptive set-theoretic setting.
A subset of leaves of a rooted tree induces a new tree in a natural way. The density of a tree $D$ inside a larger tree $T$ is the proportion of such leaf-induced subtrees in $T$ that are isomorphic to $D$ among all those with the same…
We study the structure of trees minimizing their number of stable sets for given order $n$ and stability number $\alpha$. Our main result is that the edges of a non-trivial extremal tree can be partitioned into $n-\alpha$ stars, each of…
This article considers some affine algebraic varieties attached to finite trees and closely related to cluster algebras. Their definition involves a canonical coloring of vertices of trees into three colors. These varieties are proved to be…
The quantity that captures the asymptotic value of the maximum number of appearances of a given topological tree (a rooted tree with no vertices of outdegree $1$) $S$ with $k$ leaves in an arbitrary tree with sufficiently large number of…
We formalize an existing computability-theoretic method of presenting first-order structures whose domains have the cardinality of the continuum. Work using these methods until now has emphasized their topological properties. We shift the…
Given any infinite tree in the plane satisfying certain topological conditions, we construct an entire function $f$ with only two critical values $\pm 1$ and no asymptotic values such that $f^{-1}([-1,1])$ is ambiently homeomorphic to the…
A plane rooted tree is called a hipster tree if it has no nontrivial automorphisms. Equivalently, a tree is a hipster tree if no two siblings have isomorphic subtrees. We impose the hipster condition on various classes of rooted trees. By…
Generating trees are a useful technique in the enumeration of various combinatorial objects, particularly restricted permutations. Quite often the generating tree for the set of permutations avoiding a set of patterns requires infinitely…
We present a streamlined exposition of a construction by R. Chen, A. Poulin, R. Tao, and A. Tserunyan, which proves the treeability of equivalence relations generated by any locally-finite Borel graph such that each component is a…
