In this article, we construct explicit examples of pairs of non-isomorphic trees with the same restricted $U$-polynomial for every $k$; by this we mean that the polynomials agree on terms with degree at most $k+1$. The main tool for this…
By revisiting the Kirchhoff's Matrix-Tree Theorem, we give an exact formula for the number of spanning trees of a graph in terms of the quantum relative entropy between the maximally mixed state and another state specifically obtained from…
We show that an algorithmic construction of sequences of recursive trees leads to a direct proof of the convergence of random recursive trees in an associated Doob-Martin compactification; it also gives a representation of the limit in…
The tree theorem for pairs ($\mathsf{TT}^2_2$), first introduced by Chubb, Hirst, and McNicholl, asserts that given a finite coloring of pairs of comparable nodes in the full binary tree $2^{<\omega}$, there is a set of nodes isomorphic to…
The MULTICUT IN TREES problem consists in deciding, given a tree, a set of requests (i.e. paths in the tree) and an integer k, whether there exists a set of k edges cutting all the requests. This problem was shown to be FPT by Guo and…
Counterparts of several classical results of number theory are proven for the ring of polynomials with coefficients in a number field. A theorem of Milnor that determines the Witt ring of a function field is applied to prove an analogue of…
We present three proofs of an observation of Ahmadi on the number of irreducible polynomials over $\text{GF}(2)$ with certain traces and cotraces, the most interesting of which uses an explicit natural bijection. We also present two proofs…
We introduce the concept of piecewise interlacing zeros for studying the relation of root distribution of two polynomials. The concept is pregnant with an idea of confirming the real-rootedness of polynomials in a sequence. Roughly…
In this paper, we give a constructive proof of the fact that the treewidth of a graph is at most its divisorial gonality. The proof gives a polynomial time algorithm to construct a tree decomposition of width at most $k$, when an effective…
The treedepth of a graph $G$ is the least possible depth of an elimination forest of $G$: a rooted forest on the same vertex set where every pair of vertices adjacent in $G$ is bound by the ancestor/descendant relation. We propose an…
In this paper, we introduce a new concept namely degree polynomial for vertices of a simple graph. This notion leads to a concept namely degree polynomial sequence which is stronger than the concept of degree sequence. After obtaining the…
Irreducible characters in the symmetric group are of special interest in combinatorics. They can be expressed either combinatorially with ribbon tableaux, or algebraically with contents. In this paper, these two expressions are related in a…
We consider an algebraic variety and its foliation, both defined over a number field. We prove upper bounds for the geometric complexity of the intersection between a leaf of the foliation and a subvariety of complementary dimension (also…
We present an example of a result in graph theory that is used to obtain a result in another branch of mathematics. More precisely, we show that the isomorphism of certain directed graphs implies that some trinomials over finite fields have…
The matrices of spanning rooted forests are studied as a tool for analysing the structure of networks and measuring their properties. The problems of revealing the basic bicomponents, measuring vertex proximity, and ranking from preference…
We prove the rather counterintuitive result that there exist finite transitive graphs H and integers k such that the Free Uniform Spanning Forest in the direct product of the k-regular tree and H has infinitely many trees almost surely.…
We prove that if a unimodular random rooted graph is recurrent, the number of ends of its uniform spanning tree is almost surely equal to the number of ends of the graph. Together with previous results in the transient case, this completely…
A number of hook formulas and hook summation formulas have previously appeared, involving various classes of trees. One of these classes of trees is rooted trees with labelled vertices, in which the labels increase along every chain from…
In this note we study a certain graph polynomial arising from a special recursion. This recursion is a member of a family of four recursions where the other three recursions belong to the chromatic polynomial, the modified matching…
Kirchhoff's matrix tree theorem is a well-known result that gives a formula for the number of spanning trees in a finite, connected graph in terms of the graph Laplacian matrix. A closely related result is Wilson's algorithm for putting the…
