For a vertex $u$ of a tree $T$, the leaf (internal, respectively) status of $u$ is the sum of the distances from $u$ to all leaves (internal vertices, respectively) of $T$. The minimum (maximum, respectively) leaf status of a tree $T$ is…
In a deterministic or random tree, a notion of ancestral diversity can be defined as follows. Sample independently $n$ groups of $k$ leaves and count the number $N_n(k)$ of distinct most recent common ancestors of each of the groups. As $n$…
We prove that if a tree $T$ has $n$ vertices and maximum degree at most $\Delta$, then a copy of $T$ can almost surely be found in the random graph $\mathcal{G}(n,\Delta\log^5 n/n)$.
We use the language of proper CAT(-1) spaces to study thick, locally compact trees, the real, complex and quaternionic hyperbolic spaces and the hyperbolic plane over the octonions. These are rank 1 Euclidean buildings, respectively rank 1…
For a graph $G$, and two distinct vertices $u$ and $v$ of $G$, let $n_G(u,v)$ be the number of vertices of $G$ that are closer in $G$ to $u$ than to $v$. Miklavi\v{c} and \v{S}parl (arXiv:2011.01635v1) define the distance-unbalancedness…
We prove a general Fueter Theorem over real alternative *-algebras. We show that a suitable power of the Laplacian maps Dunkl-regular functions to Dunkl monogenic functions with axial symmetries. Using the embedding of hypercomplex function…
The Rooted Maximum Leaf Outbranching problem consists in finding a spanning directed tree rooted at some prescribed vertex of a digraph with the maximum number of leaves. Its parameterized version asks if there exists such a tree with at…
By weighted tree we understand such connected tree,that: a) each its vertex and each edge have a positive integer weight; b) the weight of each vertex is equal to the sum of weights of outgoing edges. Each tree has a binary structure --- we…
The index of a graph is the largest eigenvalue of its adjacency matrix. A starlike is a tree having a unique vertex of degree $r>2$. We show how to order the starlike trees with $n>3$ by their indices. In particular, the indices of starlike…
In this paper we enumerate and give bijections for the following four sets of vertices among rooted ordered trees of a fixed size: (i) first-children of degree $k$ at level $\ell$, (ii) non-first-children of degree $k$ at level $\ell-1$,…
Let G be a graph. The Laplacian ratio of G is the permanent of the Laplacian matrix of G divided by the product of degrees of all vertices. The computational complexity of Laplacian ratio is #P-complete. Brualdi and Goldwasser studied…
In this paper we find the generating function for the number of vertices that have k elements in their subtree and use this generating function to calculate the probability that a vertex has a size k subtree. We also show how this same…
We study a maximization problem for geometric network design. Given a set of $n$ compact neighborhoods in $\mathbb{R}^d$, select a point in each neighborhood, so that the longest spanning tree on these points (as vertices) has maximum…
We study the $SIG$ dimension of trees under $L_{\infty}$ metric and answer an open problem posed by Michael and Quint (Discrete Applied Mathematics: 127, pages 447-460, 2003). Let $T$ be a tree with atleast two vertices. For each $v\in…
We determine the maximum distance between any two of the center, centroid, and subtree core among trees with a given order. Corresponding results are obtained for trees with given maximum degree and also for trees with given diameter. The…
A $k$-tree is a spanning tree in which every vertex has degree at most $k$. In this paper, we provide a sufficient condition for the existence of a $k$-tree in a connected graph with fixed order in terms of the adjacency spectral radius and…
Spanning trees are relevant to various aspects of networks. Generally, the number of spanning trees in a network can be obtained by computing a related determinant of the Laplacian matrix of the network. However, for a large generic…
A caterpillar graph $T(p_1, \ldots, p_r)$ of order $n= r+\sum_{i=1}^r p_i$, $r\geq 2$, is a tree such that removing all its pendent vertices gives rise to a path of order $r$. In this paper we establish a necessary and sufficient condition…
In this paper we provide the classification of positive solutions to the critical $p-$Laplace equation on $\mathbb{R}^n$, for $1<p<n$, possibly having infinite energy. If $n=2$, or if $n=3$ and $\frac 32<p<2$ we prove rigidity without any…
The energy of a graph is the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. This note is about the energy of regular graphs. It is shown that graphs that are close to regular can be made regular with a negligible…
