We give two combinatorial proofs of an elegant product formula for the number of spanning trees of the $n$-dimensional hypercube. The first proof is based on the assertion that if one chooses a uniformly random rooted spanning tree of the…
A tree with $n$ vertices has at most $95^{n/13}$ minimal dominating sets. The growth constant $\lambda = \sqrt[13]{95} \approx 1.4194908$ is best possible. It is obtained in a semi-automatic way as a kind of "dominant eigenvalue" of a…
Minimal spanning trees on infinite vertex sets are investigated. A criterion for minimality of a spanning tree having a finite length is obtained, which generalizes the corresponding classical result for finite sets. It is given an analytic…
In this paper we study the dynamic feedback stability for a simplified model of fluid-structure interaction on a tree. We prove that, under some conditions, the energy of the solutions of the system decay exponentially to zero when the time…
Given points in Euclidean space of arbitrary dimension, we prove that there exists a spanning tree having no vertices of degree greater than 3 with weight at most 1.559 times the weight of the minimum spanning tree. We also prove that there…
We prove persistence of absolutely continuous spectrum for the Anderson model on a general class of tree-like graphs.
Despite recent claims we argue that Renyi's entropy is an observable quantity. It is shown that, contrary to popular belief, the reported domain of instability for Renyi entropies has zero measure (Bhattacharyya measure). In addition, we…
Expanding maps with indifferent fixed points, a.k.a. intermittent maps, are popular models in nonlinear dynamics and infinite ergodic theory. We present a simple proof of the exactness of a wide class of expanding maps of [0,1], with…
We study the complexity and expressive power of conjunctive queries over unranked labeled trees represented using a variety of structure relations such as ``child'', ``descendant'', and ``following'' as well as unary relations for node…
We explicitly calculate the distance dependent correlation functions in a maximal entropy ensemble of random trees. We show that correlations remain disassortative at all distances and vanish only as a second inverse power of the distance.…
Measuring the complexity of tree structures can be beneficial in areas that use tree data structures for storage, communication, and processing purposes. This complexity can then be used to compress tree data structures to their…
A crossing-free straight-line drawing of a graph is monotone if there is a monotone path between any pair of vertices with respect to some direction. We show how to construct a monotone drawing of a tree with $n$ vertices on an $O(n^{1.5})…
We show that for many models of random trees, the independence number divided by the size converges almost surely to a constant as the size grows to infinity; the trees that we consider include random recursive trees, binary and $m$-ary…
We show that the Anderson model has a transition from localization to delocalization at exactly 2 dimensional growth rate on antitrees with normalized edge weights which are certain discrete graphs. The kinetic part has a one-dimensional…
The core entropy of polynomials, recently introduced by W. Thurston, is a dynamical invariant which can be defined purely in combinatorial terms, and provides a useful tool to study parameter spaces of polynomials. The theory of core…
In this paper, we study the asymptotic behaviour of the number of subtrees and the subtree density for a sequence of trees that converges in the Benjamini-Schramm sense. Benjamini-Schramm convergence, also called local weak convergence,…
We give a construction of the zero range and bricklayers' processes in the totally asymmetric, attractive case. The novelty is that we allow jump rates to grow exponentially. Earlier constructions have permitted at most linearly growing…
The strip entropy is studied in this article. We prove that the strip entropy approximation is valid for every ray of a golden-mean tree. This result extends the previous result of [Petersen-Salama, Discrete \& Continuous Dynamical Systems,…
We call a tree $T$ is \emph{even} if every pair of its leaves is joined by a path of even length. Jackson and Yoshimoto~[J. Graph Theory, 2024] conjectured that every $r$-regular nonbipartite connected graph $G$ has a spanning even tree.…
We prove that, among rectangular grid graphs with a fixed number of vertices, the number of spanning trees increases when the side lengths are made more balanced. In particular, among all rectangular grid graphs with $n^2$ vertices, the…
