In this paper we study the adjacency spectrum of families of finite rooted trees with regular branching properties. In particular, we show that in the case of constant branching, the eigenvalues are realized as the roots of a family of…
Stanley and F\'eray gave a formula for the irreducible character of the symmetric group related to a multi-rectangular Young diagram. This formula shows that the character is a polynomial in the multi-rectangular coordinates and gives an…
We study the chromatic symmetric function on graphs, and show that its kernel is spanned by the modular relations. We generalize this result to the chromatic quasisymmetric function on hypergraphic polytopes, a family of generalized…
This paper studies the structure of graphs with given tree-width and excluding a fixed complete bipartite subgraph, which generalises the bounded degree setting. We give a new structural description of such graphs in terms of so-called…
The first part of this paper ( arXiv:1607.02114 ) introduced splitting trees, those chronological trees admitting the self-similarity property where individuals give birth, at constant rate, to iid copies of themselves. It also established…
An edge-colored rooted directed tree (aka arborescence) is path-monochromatic if every path in it is monochromatic. Let $k,\ell$ be positive integers. For a tournament $T$, let $f_T(k)$ be the largest integer such that every $k$-edge…
Let $P$ be a poset, $inc(P)$ its incomparability graph, and $X_{inc(P)}$ the corresponding chromatic symmetric function, as defined by Stanley in {\em Adv. Math.}, {\bf 111} (1995) pp.~166--194. Certain conditions on $P$ imply that the…
Tree-based methods are powerful nonparametric techniques in statistics and machine learning. However, their effectiveness, particularly in finite-sample settings, is not fully understood. Recent applications have revealed their surprising…
In this talk, I will discuss the use of harmonic functions to study the geometry and topology of complete manifolds. In my previous joint work with Luen-fai Tam, we discovered that the number of infinities of a complete manifold can be…
In 1998, B\"{o}cker and Dress gave a 1-to-1 correspondence between symbolically dated rooted trees and symbolic ultrametrics. We consider the corresponding problem for unrooted trees. More precisely, given a tree $T$ with leaf set $X$ and a…
We obtain a generating function for the degree sequences and colors of rooted multipartite labeled series-reduced trees. As an application of this result, we determine the number of symbolic ultrametrics (introduced by B\"ocker and Dress)…
In this paper, we introduce the notion of Cartesian Forest, which generalizes Cartesian Trees, in order to deal with partially ordered sequences. We show that algorithms that solve both exact and approximate Cartesian Tree Matching can be…
We say that a finitely generated group $G$ has property (QT) if it acts isometrically on a finite product of quasi-trees so that orbit maps are quasi-isometric embeddings. A quasi-tree is a connected graph with path metric quasi-isometric…
We derive the exact partition function for a discrete model of random trees embedded in a one-dimensional space. These trees have vertices labeled by integers representing their position in the target space, with the SOS constraint that…
It is shown that the rooted trees $T_X$ and $T_Y$ representing finite ultrametric spaces $X$ and $Y$ are isomorphic if and only if there exists a ball-preserving bijection $F:X\to Y$.
The coefficients of the chain polynomial of a finite poset enumerate chains in the poset by their number of elements. The chain polynomials of the partition lattices and their standard type $B$ analogues are shown to have only real roots.…
We define decision trees for monotone functions on a simplicial complex. We define homology decidability of monotone functions, and show that various monotone functions related to semimatroids are homology decidable. Homology decidability…
Place value numbers, such as the binary or decimal numbers can be represented by the end vertices (leaf or pendant vertices) of rooted symmetrical trees. Numbers that consist of at most a fixed number of digits are represented by vertices…
In this article, we construct explicit examples of pairs of non-isomorphic trees with the same restricted $U$-polynomial for every $k$; by this we mean that the polynomials agree on terms with degree at most $k+1$. The main tool for this…
We construct a homotopy initial functor from the partition complex of a finite set $A$ to a category of trees with leaves labelled by $A$. As an application, this provides an equivalence between different bar constructions of an operad. In…
