Fitch graphs $G=(X,E)$ are digraphs that are explained by $\{\emptyset, 1\}$-edge-labeled rooted trees $T$ with leaf set $X$: there is an arc $(x,y) \in E$ if and only if the unique path in $T$ that connects the last common ancestor…
Let $\phi(x,y)$ be a continuous function, smooth away from the diagonal, such that, for some $\alpha>0$, the associated generalized Radon transforms \begin{equation} \label{Radon} R_t^{\phi}f(x)=\int_{\phi(x,y)=t} f(y) \psi(y)…
In this article, Temperley's bijection between spanning trees of the square grid on the one hand, and perfect matchings (also known as dimer coverings) of the square grid on the other, is extended to the setting of general planar directed…
The LR-drawing-method is a method of drawing an ordered rooted binary tree based on drawing one root-to-leaf path on a vertical line and attaching recursively obtained drawings of the subtrees on the left and right. In this paper, we study…
For a digraph $D=(V(D), A(D))$, and a set $S\subseteq V(D)$ with $r\in S$ and $|S|\geq 2$, an $(S, r)$-tree is an out-tree $T$ rooted at $r$ with $S\subseteq V(T)$. Two $(S, r)$-trees $T_1$ and $T_2$ are said to be arc-disjoint if…
We consider a family of pairs of m-by-p and m-by-q matrices, in which some entries are required to be zero and the others are arbitrary, with respect to transformations (A,B)--> (SAR,SBL) with nonsingular S, R, L. We prove that almost all…
We consider absolutely free nonassociative algebras and, more generally, absolutely free algebras with (maybe infinitely) many multilinear operations. Such algebras are described in terms of labeled reduced planar rooted trees. This allows…
We extend to infinite graphs the matroidal characterization of finite graph duality, that two graphs are dual iff they have complementary spanning trees in some common edge set. The naive infinite analogue of this fails. The key in an…
The Laplacian matrix of a graph $G$ is $L(G)=D(G)-A(G)$, where $A(G)$ is the adjacency matrix and $D(G)$ is the diagonal matrix of vertex degrees. According to the Matrix-Tree Theorem, the number of spanning trees in $G$ is equal to any…
Consider the d-dimensional lattice Z^d where each vertex is ``open'' or ``closed'' with probability p or 1-p, respectively. An open vertex v is connected by an edge to the closest open vertex w such that the dth co-ordinates of v and w…
It is known from the algebraic graph theory that if $L$ is the Laplacian matrix of some tree $G$ with a vertex degree sequence $\mathbf{d}=(d_1, ..., d_n)^\top$ and $D$ is its distance matrix, then…
We describe two constructions of (very) dense graphs which are edge disjoint unions of large {\em induced} matchings. The first construction exhibits graphs on $N$ vertices with ${N \choose 2}-o(N^2)$ edges, which can be decomposed into…
For a digraph $D=(V(D), A(D))$, and a set $S\subseteq V(D)$ with $r\in S$ and $|S|\geq 2$, an $(S, r)$-tree is an out-tree $T$ rooted at $r$ with $S\subseteq V(T)$. Two $(S, r)$-trees $T_1$ and $T_2$ are said to be arc-disjoint if…
Two plane drawings of graphs on the same set of points are called disjoint compatible if their union is plane and they do not have an edge in common. Let $S$ be a convex point set of $2n \geq 10$ points and let $\mathcal{H}$ be a family of…
If $G$ is a strongly connected finite directed graph, the set $\mathcal{T}G$ of rooted directed spanning trees of $G$ is naturally equipped with a structure of directed graph: there is a directed edge from any spanning tree to any other…
This work is the first step towards a description of the Gromov boundary of the free factor graph of a free product, with applications to subgroup classification for outer automorphisms. We extend the theory of algebraic laminations dual to…
In this paper we consider dimonoids, which are sets equipped with two associative binary operations. Dimonoids in the sense of J.-L. Loday are xamples of duplexes. The set of all permutations, gives an example of a duplex which is not a…
We prove a conjecture of Fox, Huang, and Lee that characterizes directed graphs that have constant density in all tournaments: they are disjoint unions of trees that are each constructed in a certain recursive way.
A Laver tree is a tree in which each node splits infinitely often. A Hechler tree is a tree in which each node splits cofinitely often. We show that every analytic set is either disjoint from the branches of a Heckler tree or contains the…
An \emph{out-tree (in-tree)} is an oriented tree where every vertex except one, called the \emph{root}, has in-degree (out-degree) one. An \emph{out-branching $B^+_u$ (in-branching $B^-_u$)} of a digraph $D$ is a spanning out-tree (in-tree)…
