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…
The Gy\'arf\'as tree packing conjecture asserts that any set of trees with $2,3, ..., k$ vertices has an (edge-disjoint) packing into the complete graph on $k$ vertices. Gy\'arf\'as and Lehel proved that the conjecture holds in some special…
The greedy tree $\mathcal{G}(D)$ and the $\mathcal{M}$-tree $\mathcal{M}(D)$ are known to be extremal among trees with degree sequence $D$ with respect to various graph invariants. This paper provides a general theorem that covers a large…
We show a general result known as the Erdos_Sos Conjecture: if $E(G)>{1/2}(k-1)n$ where $G$ has order $n$ then $G$ contains every tree of order $k+1$ as a subgraph.
A subset of vertices is a {\it maximum independent set} if no two of the vertices are adjacent and the subset has maximum cardinality. A subset of vertices is called a {\it maximum dissociation set} if it induces a subgraph with vertex…
This is a survey article on trees, with a modest number of proofs to give a flavor of the way these topologies can be efficiently handled. Trees are defined in set-theorist fashion as partially ordered sets in which the elements below each…
We investigate the number of permutations that occur in random labellings of trees. This is a generalisation of the number of subpermutations occurring in a random permutation. It also generalises some recent results on the number of…
A family of sets is intersecting if every pair of its sets intersect. A star is a family with some element (a center) in each of its sets. The classical 1961 result of Erd\H{o}s, Ko, and Rado states that every intersecting family of r-sets…
Following a remark of Lawvere, we explicitly exhibit a particularly elementary bijection between the set T of finite binary trees and the set T^7 of seven-tuples of such trees. "Particularly elementary" means that the application of the…
A graph is closed when its vertices have a labeling by $[n]$ such that the binomial edge ideal $J_G$ has a quadratic Gr\"{o}bner basis with respect to the lexicographic order induced by $x_1 > \cdots > x_n > y_1> \cdots > y_n$. In this…
Periodic trees are combinatorial structures which are in bijection with cluster tilting objects in cluster categories of affine type $\tilde{A}_{n-1}$. The internal edges of the tree encode the $c$-vectors corresponding to the cluster…
Binary relations derived from labeled rooted trees play an import role in mathematical biology as formal models of evolutionary relationships. The (symmetrized) Fitch relation formalizes xenology as the pairs of genes separated by at least…
The in-order traversal provides a natural correspondence between binary trees with a decreasing vertex labeling and endofunctions on a finite set. By suitably restricting the vertex labeling we arrive at a class of trees that we call…
A graph $G$ is said to be Hamiltonian if it contains a spanning cycle. In this work, we investigate the Hamiltonian completeness of certain classes of caterpillar graphs, which are trees with a central path to which all other vertices are…
A conjecture by Bollob\'as from 1995 (which is a weakenning of the famous Tree Packing Conjecture by Gy\'arf\'as from 1976) states that any set of $k$ trees $T_n,T_{n-1},\dots,T_{n-k+1}$, such that $T_{n-i}$ has $n-i$ vertices, pack into…
We study upward planar straight-line embeddings (UPSE) of directed trees on given point sets. The given point set $S$ has size at least the number of vertices in the tree. For the special case where the tree is a path $P$ we show that: (a)…
Mader conjectured that for any tree $T$ of order $m$, every $k$-connected graph $G$ with minimum degree at least $\lfloor\frac{3k}{2}\rfloor +m-1$ contains a subtree $T'\cong T$ such that $G-V(T')$ is $k$-connected. In this paper, we give a…
A subset of an abelian group is {\em sequenceable} if there is an ordering $(x_1, \ldots, x_k)$ of its elements such that the partial sums $(y_0, y_1, \ldots, y_k)$, given by $y_0 = 0$ and $y_i = \sum_{j=1}^i x_i$ for $1 \leq i \leq k$, are…
We prove a conjecture of Shteiner and Shteyner stating that for a bipartite graph $G=(V,E)$, the number of forests in $G$ equals the number of degree sequences arising from its spanning subgraphs. In the process, we provide several…
A vertex of degree one in a tree is called an end vertex and a vertex of degree at least three is called a branch vertex. For a graph $G$, let $\sigma_2$ be the minimum degree sum of two nonadjacent vertices in $G$. We consider tree…
