A \emph{tree-partition} of a graph $G$ is a proper partition of its vertex set into `bags', such that identifying the vertices in each bag produces a forest. The \emph{tree-partition-width} of $G$ is the minimum number of vertices in a bag…

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…

The equitable tree-coloring can formulate a structure decomposition problem on the communication network with some security considerations. Namely, an equitable tree-$k$-coloring of a graph is a vertex coloring using $k$ distinct colors…

In this paper, we estimate the weak saturation numbers of trees. As a case study, we examine caterpillars and obtain several tight estimates. In particular, this implies that for any $\alpha\in [1,2]$, there exist caterpillars with $k$…

In this paper, we introduce TreeCoders, a novel family of transformer trees. We moved away from traditional linear transformers to complete k-ary trees. Transformer blocks serve as nodes, and generic classifiers learn to select the best…

Let v(G) be the number of vertices and t(G,k) the maximum number of disjoint k-edge trees in G. In this paper we show that (a1) if G is a graph with every vertex of degree at least two and at most s, where s > 3, then t(G,2) is at least…

The tree spanner problem for a graph $G$ is as follows: For a given integer $k$, is there a spanning tree $T$ of $G$ (called a tree $k$-spanner) such that the distance in $T$ between every pair of vertices is at most $k$ times their…

Guo, Li, Shangguan, Tamo, and Wootters formulated in SIAM Journal on Computing a hypergraph Nash--Williams--Tutte conjecture: every $k$-weakly-partition-connected hypergraph on $t$ vertices should admit a $k$-distinguishable tree…

Let $\T_{n}$ be the set of rooted labeled trees on $\set{0,...,n}$. A maximal decreasing subtree of a rooted labeled tree is defined by the maximal subtree from the root with all edges being decreasing. In this paper, we study a new…

It is a classical result that an unrooted tree $T$ having positive real-valued edge lengths and no vertices of degree two can be reconstructed from the induced distance between each pair of leaves. Moreover, if each non-leaf vertex of $T$…

We look for partition theorems for large subtrees for suitable uncountable trees and colourings. We concentrate on sub-trees of $^{\kappa \ge} 2$ expanded by a well ordering of each level. Unlike earlier works, we do not ask the embedding…

We consider three different schemes for signal routing on a tree. The vertices of the tree represent transceivers that can transmit and receive signals, and are equipped with i.i.d. weights representing the strength of the transceivers. The…

We study the problem of edge partitioning, where the goal is to partition the edge set of a graph into several parts. The replication factor of a vertex $v$ is the number of parts that contain edges incident to $v$. The goal is to minimize…

For a connected graph, a vertex separator is a set of vertices whose removal creates at least two components and a minimum vertex separator is a vertex separator of least cardinality. The vertex connectivity refers to the size of a minimum…

For a non-negative integer $\ell$, the $\ell$-leaf power of a tree $T$ is a simple graph $G$ on the leaves of $T$ such that two vertices are adjacent in $G$ if and only if their distance in $T$ is at most $\ell$. We provide a polynomial…

Let $k\geq2$ be an integer. A tree $T$ is called a $k$-tree if $d_T(v)\leq k$ for each $v\in V(T)$, that is, the maximum degree of a $k$-tree is at most $k$. Let $\lambda_1(D(G))$ denote the distance spectral radius in $G$, where $D(G)$…

Partially answering a question of Paul Seymour, we obtain a sufficient eigenvalue condition for the existence of $k$ edge-disjoint spanning trees in a regular graph, when $k\in \{2,3\}$. More precisely, we show that if the second largest…

In this paper we investigate the geometric properties of quasi-trees, and prove some equivalent criteria. We give a general construction of a tree that approximates the ends of a geodesic space, and use this to prove that every quasi-tree…

Given an undirected graph $G$ whose edge weights change over $s$ time slots, the sub-tree scheduling for wireless sensor networks with partial coverage asks to partition the vertices of $G$ in $s$ non-empty trees such that the total weight…

We study that over some types of trees with a given number of vertices, which trees minimize or maximize the total number of subtrees. Trees minimizing (resp. maximizing) the total number of subtrees usually maximize (resp. minimize) the…
