A tree T is invertible if and only if T has a perfect matching. Godsil considers an invertible tree T and finds that the inverse of the adjacency matrix of T has entries in {0, 1, -1} and is the signed adjacency matrix of a graph which…

A rooted tree is balanced if the degree of a vertex depends only on its distance to the root. In this paper we determine the sharp threshold for the appearance of a large family of balanced spanning trees in the random geometric graph…

In an attempt to prove the Graceful Tree Conjecture, we present two propagation of graphs. The first is to propagate graceful graphs, and the second is to propagate trees from a gracefully labeled tree. The motivation in propagating such…

In 1989 Erd\H{o}s and Sz\'ekely showed that there is a bijection between (i) the set of rooted trees with $n+1$ vertices whose leaves are bijectively labeled with the elements of $[\ell]=\{1,2,\dots,\ell\}$ for some $\ell \leq n$, and (ii)…

Let G = (V, E) be a directed and weighted graph with vertex set V of size n and edge set E of size m, such that each edge (u, v) \in E has a real-valued weight w(u, c). An arborescence in G is a subgraph T = (V, E') such that for a vertex u…

A {\it tiered graph} $G=(V,E)$ with $m $ tiers is a simple graph with $V\subseteq \brk{n}$, where $\brk{n}=\{1,2,\cdots,n\}$, and with a surjective map $t$ from $V$ to $\brk{m}$ such that if $v$ is a vertex adjacent to $v'$ in $G$ with…

An antimagic labeling for a graph $G$ with $m$ edges is a bijection $f: E(G) \to \{1, 2, \dots, m\}$ so that $\phi_f(u) \neq \phi_f(v)$ holds for any pair of distinct vertices $u, v \in V(G)$, where $\phi_f(x) = \sum_{x \in e} f(e)$. A…

Let $X$ be a non-empty ground set and $\mathscr{P}(X)$ be its power set. A set-labeling (or a set-valuation) of a graph $G$ is an injective set-valued function $f:V(G)\to \mathscr{P}(X)$ such that the induced function $f^*:E(G) \to…

A treedepth decomposition of an undirected graph $G$ is a rooted forest $F$ on the vertex set of $G$ such that every edge $uv\in E(G)$ is in ancestor-descendant relationship in $F$. Given a weight function $w\colon V(G)\rightarrow…

A graph $G$ with $p$ vertices and $q$ edges is said to be edge-graceful if its edges can be labeled from $1$ through $q$, in such a way that the labels induced on the vertices by adding over the labels of incident edges modulo $p$ are…

Suppose we label the vertices of a tree by positive integers. The weight of an edge is defined by a monotonically increasing function of the absolute value of the difference of the labels of its endpoints. We define the total cost of the…

The modular decomposition of a symmetric map $\delta\colon X\times X \to \Upsilon$ (or, equivalently, a set of symmetric binary relations, a 2-structure, or an edge-colored undirected graph) is a natural construction to capture key features…

Consider an order $n$ abelian group $G$ and a tree $T$ on $n$ vertices. When is it possible to (bijectively) label $V(T)$ by $G$ so that along all edges $xy$ of $T$, the sums $x+y$ are distinct? This problem can be traced back to the work…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be an $n$-vertex graph with $m$ edges. A function $f : V \cup E \rightarrow \{1, \ldots, n+m\}$ is an edge-magic labeling of $G$ if $f$ is bijective and, for some integer $k$, we have $f(u)+f(v)+f(uv) = k$ for every edge $uv…

The essential feature of a root-graded Lie algebra L is the existence of a split semisimple subalgebra g with respect to which L is an integrable module with weights in a possibly non-reduced root system S of the same rank as the root…

Rooted bifurcating trees are mathematical objects used to model evolutionary relationships and arise naturally in both coalescent theory and phylogenetics. Recent numerical representations of tree topologies, known as F-matrices, allow for…

In a rooted tree, we call a vertex {\em balanced} if it is at equal distance from all its descendant leaves. We count balanced vertices in three different tree varieties. For decreasing binary trees, we can prove that the probability that a…

The main result of this paper states that in a rooted product of a path with rooted graphs which are disposed in a somewhat mirror-symmetric fashion, there are distinct eigenvalues supported in the end vertices of the path which are too…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$ and $v_{i}\in V$, denote by $d_{i}$ the degree of vertex $v_{i}$. Let $f(x, y)>0$ be a real symmetric function in $x$ and $y$. The weighted adjacency matrix $A_{f}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a square matrix, where the…

A number of hook formulas and hook summation formulas have previously appeared, involving various classes of trees. One of these classes of trees is rooted trees with labelled vertices, in which the labels increase along every chain from…
