The probability distribution P(k) of the sizes k of critical trees (branching ratio m=1) is well known to show a power-law behavior k^(-3/2). Such behavior corresponds to the mean-field approximation for many critical and self-organized…

Uniform spanning trees are a statistical model obtained by taking the set of all spanning trees on a given graph (such as a portion of a cubic lattice in d dimensions), with equal probability for each distinct tree. Some properties of such…

Power domination in graphs arises from the problem of monitoring an electric power system by placing as few measurement devices in the system as possible. A power dominating set of a graph is a set of vertices that observes every vertex in…
