The pseudoforest version of the Strong Nine Dragon Tree Conjecture states that if a graph $G$ has maximum average degree $\text{mad}(G) = 2 \max_{H \subseteq G} \frac{e(G)}{v(G)}$ at most $2(k + \frac{d}{k+d+1})$, then it has a…

Treewidth is a well-studied decompositional parameter to measure the tree-likeness of a graph. While the propositional satisfiability problem (SAT) is known to be tractable when parameterized by the treewidth of the underlying primal graph,…

Treewidth is a parameter that emerged from the study of minor closed classes of graphs (i.e. classes closed under vertex and edge deletion, and edge contraction). It in some sense describes the global structure of a graph. Roughly, a graph…

For certain HNN extensions including Baumslag-Solitar groups, a treeing is constructed from their certain probability-measure-preserving actions. This is a treeing of a quotient groupoid of the translation groupoid associated with their…

A cluster tree provides a highly-interpretable summary of a density function by representing the hierarchy of its high-density clusters. It is estimated using the empirical tree, which is the cluster tree constructed from a density…

Rotation distance between trees measures the number of simple operations it takes to transform one tree into another. There are no known polynomial-time algorithms for computing rotation distance. In the case of ordered rooted trees, we…

Large language models achieve strong reasoning performance, yet existing decoding strategies either explore blindly (random sampling) or redundantly (independent multi-sampling). We propose Entropy-Tree, a tree-based decoding method that…

A $k$-block in a graph $G$ is a maximal set of at least $k$ vertices no two of which can be separated in $G$ by removing less than $k$ vertices. It is separable if there exists a tree-decomposition of adhesion less than $k$ of $G$ in which…

Let $T$ be a tree, we show that the null space of the adjacency matrix of $T$ has relevant information about the structure of $T$. We introduce the Null Decomposition of trees, and use it in order to get formulas for independence number and…

The tree-cut width of a graph is a graph parameter defined by Wollan [J. Comb. Theory, Ser. B, 110:47-66, 2015] with the help of tree-cut decompositions. In certain cases, tree-cut width appears to be more adequate than treewidth as an…
