For an undirected tree with $n$ edges labelled by single letters, we consider its substrings, which are labels of the simple paths between pairs of nodes. We prove that there are $O(n^{1.5})$ different palindromic substrings. This solves an…
We show it is consistent that there is a Souslin tree $S$ such that after forcing with $S$, $S$ is Kurepa and for all clubs $C \subset \omega_1$, $S\upharpoonright C$ is rigid. This answers Fuchs's questions in Club degrees of rigidity and…
A branch vertex in a tree is a vertex of degree at least three. We prove that, for all $s\geq 1$, every connected graph on $n$ vertices with minimum degree at least $(\frac{1}{s+3}+o(1))n$ contains a spanning tree having at most $s$ branch…
It is proved that the restriction of a $k$ and $(k-1)$-component directed spanning forest of minimal weight to an atom of the subset algebra generated by the sets of vertices of trees of $k$-component minimal spanning forests is a tree. For…
An $\alpha$-thin tree $T$ of a graph $G$ is a spanning tree such that every cut of $G$ has at most an $\alpha$ proportion of its edges in $T$. The Thin Tree Conjecture proposes that there exists a function $f$ such that for any $\alpha >…
The tree share structure proposed by Dockins et al. is an elegant model for tracking disjoint ownership in concurrent separation logic, but decision procedures for tree shares are hard to implement due to a lack of a systematic theoretical…
For any $2 \le n < \omega$, we introduce a forcing poset using generalized promises which adds a normal $n$-splitting subtree to a $(\ge \! n)$-splitting normal Aronszajn tree. Using this forcing poset, we prove several consistency results…
Let $T$ be a tree rooted at $r$. Two vertices of $T$ are related if one is a descendant of the other; otherwise, they are unrelated. Two subsets $A$ and $B$ of $V(T)$ are unrelated if, for any $a\in A$ and $b\in B$, $a$ and $b$ are…
We give a counterexample to a conjecture of Poon [Poo06] that any orthogonal tree in two dimensions can always be flattened by a continuous motion that preserves edge lengths and avoids self-intersection. We show our example is locked by…
We prove that every weakly square compact cardinal is a strong limit cardinal. We also study Aronszajn trees with no uncountable finitely branching subtrees, characterizing them in terms of being Lindel\"of with respect to a particular…
Let $G$ be a graph and let $f$ be a positive integer-valued function on $V(G)$. In this paper, we show that if for all $S\subseteq V(G)$, $\omega(G\setminus S)<\sum_{v\in S}(f(v)-2)+2+\omega(G[S])$, then $G$ has a spanning tree $T$…
We introduce an abstract framework for forcing over a free Suslin tree with suborders of products of forcings which add some structure to the tree using countable approximations. The main ideas of this framework are consistency, separation,…
We prove that every amenable one-ended Cayley graph has an invariant spanning tree of one end. More generally, for any 1-ended amenable unimodular random graph we construct a factor of iid percolation (jointly unimodular subgraph) that is…
We consider two axioms of second-order arithmetic. These axioms assert, in two different ways, that infinite but narrow binary trees always have infinite paths. We show that both axioms are strictly weaker than Weak K\"onig's Lemma, and…
We prove that every oriented tree on $n$ vertices with bounded maximum degree appears as a spanning subdigraph of every directed graph on $n$ vertices with minimum semidegree at least $n/2+o(n)$. This can be seen as a directed graph…
Trees are partial orders in which every element has a linearly ordered set of predecessors. Here we initiate the exploration of the structural theory of trees with the study of different notions of \emph{branching in trees} and of…
For integer $k\geq2,$ a spanning $k$-ended-tree is a spanning tree with at most $k$ leaves. Motivated by the closure theorem of Broersma and Tuinstra [Independence trees and Hamilton cycles, J. Graph Theory 29 (1998) 227--237], we provide…
We answer three questions posed by Bubeck and Linial on the limit densities of subtrees in trees. We prove there exist positive $\varepsilon_1$ and $\varepsilon_2$ such that every tree that is neither a path nor a star has inducibility at…
We prove that every connected graph with $s$ vertices of degree~1 and 3 and $t$ vertices of degree at least~4 has a spanning tree with at least ${1\over 3}t +{1\over 4}s+{3\over 2}$ leaves. We present infinite series of graphs showing that…
We construct a model in which the tree property holds in $\aleph_{\omega + 1}$ and it is destructible under $\text{Col}(\omega, \omega_1)$. On the other hand we discuss some cases in which the tree property is indestructible under small or…
