We consider a probability measure on cycle-rooted spanning forests (CRSFs) introduced by Kenyon. CRSFs are spanning subgraphs, each connected component of which has a unique cycle; they generalize spanning trees. A generalization of…

The discrete Green's functions are the pseudoinverse (or the inverse) of the Laplacian (or its variations) of a graph. In this paper, we will give combinatorial interpretations of Green's functions in terms of enumerating trees and forests…

The performance of unsupervised methods such as clustering depends on the choice of distance metric between features, or ground metric. Commonly, ground metrics are decided with heuristics or learned via supervised algorithms. However,…

We present a novel method of stacking decision trees by projection into an ordered time split out-of-fold (OOF) one nearest neighbor (1NN) space. The predictions of these one nearest neighbors are combined through a linear model. This…

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…

Distances on merge trees facilitate visual comparison of collections of scalar fields. Two desirable properties for these distances to exhibit are 1) the ability to discern between scalar fields which other, less complex topological…

In this note we analyze the performance of a simple root-finding algorithm in uniform attachment trees. The leaf-stripping algorithm recursively removes all leaves of the tree for a carefully chosen number of rounds. We show that, with…

We use the Mass Transport Principle to analyze the local recursion governing the resolvent $(A-z)^{-1}$ of the adjacency operator of unimodular random trees. In the limit where the complex parameter $z$ approaches a given location $\lambda$…

The number of rooted spanning forests divided by the number of spanning rooted trees in a graph G with Kirchhoff matrix K is the spectral quantity tau(G)= det(1+K)/det(K) of G by the matrix tree and matrix forest theorems. We prove that…

We prove that the scaling limit of loop-erased random walk in a simply connected domain $D$ is equal to the radial SLE(2) path in $D$. In particular, the limit exists and is conformally invariant. It follows that the scaling limit of the…

A branchwise-real tree is a partial order which is a tree and in which every branch is isomorphic to a real interval. I give constructions of such trees which are both rigid (i.e. without non-trivial order-automorphisms) and uniform (in two…
