We investigate the relation between degree sequences of trees and the majorization order using the Muirhead theorem. In this way, we prove a theorem that provides a necessary and sufficient condition for delta sequences of trees to be…
An ordered labeled tree is a tree in which the nodes are labeled and the left-to-right order among siblings is relevant. The edit distance between two ordered labeled trees is the minimum cost of changing one tree into the other through a…
We generalize the results from [X.-D. Zhang, X.-P. Lv, Y.-H. Chen, \textit{Ordering trees by the Laplacian coefficients}, Linear Algebra Appl. (2009), doi:10.1016/j.laa.2009.04.018] on the partial ordering of trees with given diameter. For…
We provide finite sample guarantees for the classical Chow-Liu algorithm (IEEE Trans.~Inform.~Theory, 1968) to learn a tree-structured graphical model of a distribution. For a distribution $P$ on $\Sigma^n$ and a tree $T$ on $n$ nodes, we…
Let $\mathcal{T}_n$ be the set of trees with $n$ vertices. Suppose that each tree in $\mathcal{T}_n$ is equally likely. We show that the number of different rooted trees of a tree equals $(\mu_r+o(1))n$ for almost every tree of…
We propose a B tree representation storing $n$ keys, each of $k$ bits, in either (a) $nk + O(nk / \lg n)$ bits or (b) $nk + O(nk \lg \lg n/ \lg n)$ bits of space supporting all B tree operations in either (a) $O(\lg n )$ time or (b) $O(\lg…
A transversal in a rooted tree is any set of nodes that meets every path from the root to a leaf. We let c(T,k) denote the number of transversals of size k in a rooted tree T. We define a partial order on the set of all rooted trees with n…
The treewidth of a graph is an important invariant in structural and algorithmic graph theory. This paper studies the treewidth of line graphs. We show that determining the treewidth of the line graph of a graph $G$ is equivalent to…
The celebrated result of Koml\'os, S\'ark\"ozy, and Szemer\'edi states that for any $\varepsilon>0$, there exists $0<c<1$, such that for all sufficiently large $n$, every $n$-vertex graph $G$ with $\delta(G)\geq(1/2+\varepsilon)n$ contains…
Let $\mathcal{O}_n$ be the set of ordered labeled trees on ${0,...,n}$. A maximal decreasing subtree of an ordered labeled tree is defined by the maximal ordered subtree from the root with all edges being decreasing. In this paper, we study…
We consider a Gibbs distribution over all spanning trees of an undirected, edge weighted finite graph, where, up to normalization, the probability of each tree is given by the product of its edge weights. Defining the weighted degree of a…
LRM-Trees are an elegant way to partition a sequence of values into sorted consecutive blocks, and to express the relative position of the first element of each block within a previous block. They were used to encode ordinal trees and to…
A variant of the Erd\H{o}s-S\'os conjecture, posed by Havet, Reed, Stein and Wood, states that every graph with minimum degree at least $\lfloor 2k/3 \rfloor$ and maximum degree at least $k$ contains a copy of every tree with $k$ edges.…
Many of the distributed localization algorithms are based on relaxed optimization formulations of the localization problem. These algorithms commonly rely on first-order optimization methods, and hence may require many iterations or…
A decision tree looks like a simple directed acyclic computational graph, where only the leaf nodes specify the output values and the non-terminals specify their tests or split conditions. From the numerical perspective, we express decision…
We propose a generalized model for uniform recursive tree (URT) by introducing an imperfect growth process, which may generate disconnected components (clusters). The model undergoes an interesting phase transition from a singly connected…
This paper contains a classification of countable lower 1-transitive linear orders. The notion of lower 1-transitivity generalises that of 1-transitivity for linear orders, and is essential for the structure theory of 1-transitive trees.…
The Gomory-Hu tree, or a cut tree, is a classic data structure that stores minimum $s$-$t$ cuts of an undirected weighted graph for all pairs of nodes $(s,t)$. We propose a new approach for computing the cut tree based on a reduction to the…
The tree inclusion problem is, given two node-labeled trees $P$ and $T$ (the ``pattern tree'' and the ``target tree''), to locate every minimal subtree in $T$ (if any) that can be obtained by applying a sequence of node insertion operations…
We determine upper and lower bounds for the number of maximum matchings (i.e., matchings of maximum cardinality) $m(T)$ of a tree $T$ of given order. While the trees that attain the lower bound are easily characterised, the trees with…
