A signed tree-coloring of a signed graph $(G,\sigma)$ is a vertex coloring $c$ so that $G^{c}(i,\pm)$ is a forest for every $i\in c(u)$ and $u\in V(G)$, where $G^{c}(i,\pm)$ is the subgraph of $(G,\sigma)$ whose vertex set is the set of…

We prove that every connected graph with $s$ vertices of degree not 2 has a spanning tree with at least ${1\over 4}(s-2)+2$ leaves. Let $G$ be a be a connected graph of girth $g$ with $v>1$ vertices. Let maximal chain of successively…

A tree $T$ in an edge-colored graph $H$ is called a \emph{monochromatic tree} if all the edges of $T$ have the same color. For $S\subseteq V(H)$, a \emph{monochromatic $S$-tree} in $H$ is a monochromatic tree of $H$ containing the vertices…

For all integers $k\geq 3$, we give an $O(n^4)$ time algorithm for the problem whose instance is a graph $G$ of girth at least $k$ together with $k$ vertices and whose question is "Does $G$ contains an induced subgraph containing the $k$…

A classical result from graph theory is that every graph with chromatic number \chi > t contains a subgraph with all degrees at least t, and therefore contains a copy of every t-edge tree. Bohman, Frieze, and Mubayi recently posed this…

For a given graph, the unlabeled subgraphs $G-v$ are called the cards of $G$ and the deck of $G$ is the multiset $\{G-v: v \in V(G)\}$. Wendy Myrvold [Ars Combinatoria, 1989] showed that a non-connected graph and a connected graph both on…

Suppose we label the vertices of a tree by positive integers. The weight of an edge is defined by a monotonically increasing function of the absolute value of the difference of the labels of its endpoints. We define the total cost of the…

Gomory and Hu proved that if $ G $ is a finite graph with non-negative weights on its edges, then there exists a tree $ T $ (called now Gomory-Hu tree) on $ V(G) $ such that for all $ u\neq v\in V(G) $ there is an $ e\in E(T) $ such that…

Let ${\cal T}=(T,w)$ be a weighted finite tree with leaves $1,..., n$.For any $I :=\{i_1,..., i_k \} \subset \{1,...,n\}$, let $D_I ({\cal T})$ be the weight of the minimal subtree of $T$ connecting $i_1,..., i_k$; the $D_{I} ({\cal T})$…

We consider packing tree degree sequences in this paper. We set up a conjecture that any arbitrary number of tree degree sequences without common leaves have edge disjoint tree realizations. This conjecture is known to be true for $2$ and…

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…

A proper vertex of a rooted tree with totally ordered vertices is a vertex that is less than all its proper descendants. We count several kinds of labeled rooted trees and forests by the number of proper vertices. Our results are all…

An odd coloring of a graph is a proper coloring such that every non-isolated vertex has a color that appears at an odd number of its neighbors. This notion was introduced by Petr\v{s}evski and \v{S}krekovski in 2022. In this paper, we focus…

For any real-valued $k > 1$, we consider the tree rooted at 0, where each positive integer $n$ has parent $\lfloor\frac{n}{k}\rfloor$. The average number of children per node is $k$, thus this definition gives a natural way to extend…

A gluing of two rooted trees is an identification of their leaves and un-subdivision of the resulting 2-valent vertices. A gluing of two rooted trees is subdivergence free if it has no 2-edge cuts with both roots on the same side of the…

A tree $T$ on $2^n$ vertices is called set-sequential if the elements in $V(T)\cup E(T)$ can be labeled with distinct nonzero $(n+1)$-dimensional $01$-vectors such that the vector labeling each edge is the component-wise sum modulo $2$ of…

The Tree Decomposition Conjecture by Bar\'at and Thomassen states that for every tree $T$ there exists a natural number $k(T)$ such that the following holds: If $G$ is a $k(T)$-edge-connected simple graph with size divisible by the size of…

We describe all the trees with the property that the corresponding edge ideal of the square of the tree has a linear resolution. As a consequence, we give a complete characterization of those trees $T$ for which the square is co-chordal,…

We consider the process of uncovering the vertices of a random labeled tree according to their labels. First, a labeled tree with $n$ vertices is generated uniformly at random. Thereafter, the vertices are uncovered one by one, in order of…

A tree $T$ in an edge-colored graph is called a {\it proper tree} if no two adjacent edges of $T$ receive the same color. Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$ and $k$ be an integer with $2\leq k \leq n$. For $S\subseteq V(G)$ and $|S|…
