We prove non-asymptotic stretched exponential tail bounds on the height of a randomly sampled node in a random combinatorial tree, which we use to prove bounds on the heights and widths of random trees from a variety of models. Our results…

In the critical beta-splitting model of a random $n$-leaf rooted tree, clades are recursively split into sub-clades, and a clade of $m$ leaves is split into sub-clades containing $i$ and $m-i$ leaves with probabilities $\propto 1/(i(m-i))$.…

We show that the Brownian continuum random tree is the Gromov-Hausdorff-Prohorov scaling limit of the uniform spanning tree on high-dimensional graphs including the $d$-dimensional torus $\mathbb{Z}_n^d$ with $d>4$, the hypercube…

Given a permutation $\sigma$, its corresponding binary search tree is obtained by recursively inserting the values $\sigma(1),\ldots,\sigma(n)$ into a binary tree so that the label of each node is larger than the labels of its left subtree…

A split tree of cardinality $n$ is constructed by distributing $n$ "balls" in a subset of vertices of an infinite tree which encompasses many types of random trees such as $m$-ary search trees, quad trees, median-of-$(2k+1)$ trees,…

We introduce the notion of \emph{bounded diameter arboricity}. Specifically, the \emph{diameter-$d$ arboricity} of a graph is the minimum number $k$ such that the edges of the graph can be partitioned into $k$ forests each of whose…

We calculate the distribution of the size of the percolating cluster on a tree in the subcritical, critical and supercritical phase. We do this by exploiting a mapping between continuum trees and Brownian excursions, and arrive at a…

Consider a rooted binary tree with n nodes. Assign with the root the abscissa 0, and with the left (resp. right) child of a node of abscissa i the abscissa i-1 (resp. i+1). We prove that the number of binary trees of size n having exactly…

We apply dimensional analysis with Buckinghams "Pi" theorem to estimate the volume of wood in a tree stem, given the tree's height and diameter. We use Meyer's (1953) data on 31 cherry trees from the Allegheny National forest as the main…

We study a general procedure that builds random $\mathbb R$-trees by gluing recursively a new branch on a uniform point of the pre-existing tree. The aim of this paper is to see how the asymptotic behavior of the sequence of lengths of…

Local convergence of bounded degree graphs was introduced by Benjamini and Schramm. This result was extended further by Lyons to bounded average degree graphs. In this paper, we study the convergence of a random tree sequence where the…

We consider a Brownian motion with linear drift that splits at fixed time points into a fixed number of branches, which may depend on the branching point. For this process, which we shall refer to as the Brownian decision tree, we…
