Alon and Wormald showed that any graph with minimum degree d contains a spanning star forest in which every connected component is of size at least \Omega((d/\log d)^{1/3}). They asked if any connected graph with minimum degree at least d…
In this paper, we refer to a asymptotic degree sequence as $\mathscr{D}=(d_1,d_2,\dots,d_n)$. The examination of topological indices on trees gives us a general overview through bounds to find the maximum and minimum bounds which reflect…
It is well known that the spectral radius $\rho(T)$ of a tree $T$ with at least $3$ vertices has the property that $\frac 14\rho(T)^2+1<\Delta(T)\le \rho(T)^2$, where $\Delta(T)$ is the maximum degree of $T$. Let $\mathbb{P}$ denote the set…
$\newcommand{\Max}{\mathrm{Max4PC}}$ The Four point condition (4PC henceforth) is a well known condition characterising distances in trees $T$. Let $w,x,y,z$ be four vertices in $T$ and let $d_{x,y}$ denote the distance between vertices…
The lattice dimension of a graph G is the minimal dimension of a cubic lattice in which G can be isometrically embedded. We prove that the lattice dimension of a tree with n leaves is $\lceil n/2 \rceil$.
We prove that, if $m$ is sufficiently large, every graph on $m+1$ vertices that has a universal vertex and minimum degree at least $\lfloor \frac{2m}{3} \rfloor$ contains each tree $T$ with $m$ edges as a subgraph. Our result confirms, for…
An approximate Steiner tree is a Steiner tree on a given set of terminals in Euclidean space such that the angles at the Steiner points are within a specified error e from 120 degrees.This notion arises in numerical approximations of…
For a graph $G$, an edge-separating (resp. vertex-separating) path system of $G$ is a family of paths in $G$ such that for any pair of edges $e_1, e_2$ (resp. pair of vertices $v_1, v_2$) of $G$ there is at least one path in the family that…
The atom-bond connectivity (ABC) index is a degree-based molecular descriptor with diverse chemical applications. Recent work of Lin et al. [W. Lin, J. Chen, C. Ma, Y. Zhang, J. Chen, D. Zhang, and F. Jia, On trees with minimal ABC index…
Trees without vertices of degree $2$ are sometimes named topological trees. In this work, we bring forward the study of the inducibility of (rooted) topological trees with a given number of leaves. The inducibility of a topological tree $S$…
Let $G$ be a finite or infinite graph and $m(G)$ the minimum number of vertices moved by the non-identity automorphisms of $G$. We are interested in bounds on the supremum $\Delta(G)$ of the degrees of the vertices of $G$ that assure the…
Leaves, i.e., vertices of degree one, can play a significant role in graph structure, especially in sparsely connected settings in which leaves often constitute the largest fraction of vertices. We consider a leaf-based counterpart of the…
Whereas for strings, higher-order empirical entropy is the standard entropy measure, several different notions of empirical entropy for trees have been proposed in the past, notably label entropy, degree entropy, conditional versions of the…
The leafage of a digraph is the minimum number of leaves in a host tree in which it has a subtree intersection representation. We discuss bounds on the leafage in terms of other parameters (including Ferrers dimension), obtaining a string…
Let $\mathcal{T}$ be an unrooted binary tree with $n$ distinctly labelled leaves. Deriving its name from the field of phylogenetics, a convex character on $\mathcal{T}$ is simply a partition of the leaves such that the minimal spanning…
In this paper, the study of extreme value bounds for topological indices is crucial for understanding their influence on trees and bipartite graphs. For integers $\alpha, p$ satisfying $1 \leq p \leq \alpha \leq \Delta - 3$, the minimum…
We introduce tree dimension and its leveled variant in order to measure the complexity of leaf sets in binary trees. We then provide a tight upper bound on the size of such sets using leveled tree dimension. This, in turn, implies both the…
For a graph $G$, the Mostar index of $G$ is the sum of $|n_u(e)$ - $n_v(e)|$ over all edges $e=uv$ of $G$, where $n_u(e)$ denotes the number of vertices of $G$ that have a smaller distance in $G$ to $u$ than to $v$, and analogously for…
A spanning tree $T$ of a connected graph $G$ is a subgraph of $G$ that is a tree covers all vertices of $G$. The leaf distance of $T$ is defined as the minimum of distances between any two leaves of $T$. A fractional matching of a graph $G$…
An independent edge set of graph $G$ is a matching, and is maximal if it is not a proper subset of any other matching of $G$. The number of all the maximal matchings of $G$ is denoted by $\Psi(G)$. In this paper, an algorithm to count…
