Bollob\'as-Riordan random pairing model of a preferential attachment graph $G_m^n$ is studied. Let $\{W_j\}_{j\le mn+1}$ be the process of sums of independent exponentials with mean $1$. We prove that the degrees of the first…

We show that for any fixed dense graph G and bounded-degree tree T on the same number of vertices, a modest random perturbation of G will typically contain a copy of T . This combines the viewpoints of the well-studied problems of embedding…

We obtain new non-asymptotic tail bounds for the height of uniformly random trees with a given degree sequence, simply generated trees and conditioned Bienaym\'e trees (the family trees of branching processes), in the process settling three…

Each natural number can be associated with some tree graph. Namely, a natural number $n$ can be factorized as $$ n = p_1^{\alpha_1}\ldots p_k^{\alpha_k},$$ where $p_i$ are distinct prime numbers. Since $\alpha_i$ are naturals, they can be…

We introduce a one-parametric family of tree growth models, in which branching probabilities decrease with branch age $\tau$ as $\tau^{-\alpha}$. Depending on the exponent $\alpha$, the scaling of tree depth with tree size $n$ displays a…

This note defines a notion of multiplicity for nodes in a rooted tree and presents an asymptotic calculation of the maximum multiplicity over all leaves in a Bienaym\'e-Galton-Watson tree with critical offspring distribution $\xi$,…

We consider a super-critical Galton-Watson tree whose non-degenerate offspring distribution has finite mean. We consider the random trees $\tau$n distributed as $\tau$ conditioned on the n-th generation, Zn, to be of size an $\in$ N. We…

A degree sequence is a sequence ${\bf s}=(N_i,i\geq 0)$ of non-negative integers satisfying $1+\sum_i iN_i=\sum_i N_i<\infty$. We are interested in the uniform distribution $\mathbb{P}_{{\bf s}}$ on rooted plane trees whose degree sequence…

In this paper, we study the online nearest neighbor random tree in dimension $d\in \mathbb N$ (called $d$-NN tree for short) defined as follows. We fix the torus $\mathbb T^d_n$ of dimension $d$ and area $n$ and equip it with the metric…

Phylogenetic trees are frequently used to model evolution. Such trees are typically reconstructed from data like DNA, RNA, or protein alignments using methods based on criteria like maximum parsimony (amongst others). Maximum parsimony has…

This extended abstract is dedicated to the analysis of the height of non-plane unlabelled rooted binary trees. The height of such a tree chosen uniformly among those of size $n$ is proved to have a limiting theta distribution, both in a…

We present here a new and universal approach for the study of random and/or trees, unifying in one framework many different models, including some novel ones not yet understood in the literature. An and/or tree is a Boolean expression…

We consider a model of random tree growth, where at each time unit a new vertex is added and attached to an already existing vertex chosen at random. The probability with which a vertex with degree $k$ is chosen is proportional to $w(k)$,…

We extend the results of B. Bollobas, O. Riordan, J. Spencer, G. Tusnady, and Mori. We consider a model of random tree growth, where at each time unit a new node is added and attached to an already existing node chosen at random. The…

Let $\tau$n be a random tree distributed as a Galton-Watson tree with geometric offspring distribution conditioned on {Zn = an} where Zn is the size of the n-th generation and (an, n $\in$ N *) is a deterministic positive sequence. We study…

An unusual and surprising expansion of the form \[ p_n = \rho^{-n-1}(6n +\tfrac{18}5+ \tfrac{336}{3125} n^{-5}+\tfrac{1008}{3125} n^{-6} +\text{smaller order terms}), \] as $n\to\infty$, is derived for the probability $p_n$ that two…

Given a graphical degree sequence ${\bf d}=(d_1,\ldots, d_n)$, let $G(n, {\bf d})$ denote a uniformly random graph on vertex set $[n]$ where vertex $ i$ has degree $d_i$ for every $1\le i\le n$. We give upper and lower bounds on the joint…

Let $T$ be an infinite rooted tree with weights $w_e$ assigned to its edges. Denote by $m_n(T)$ the minimum weight of a path from the root to a node of the $n$th generation. We consider the possible behaviour of $m_n(T)$ with focus on the…

We analyze variational inference for highly symmetric graphical models such as those arising from first-order probabilistic models. We first show that for these graphical models, the tree-reweighted variational objective lends itself to a…

A Markov logic network (MLN) $\mathbb{M}$ determines a probability distribution $\mathbb{P}_n^\mathbb{M}$ on the set $\mathbf{W}_n$ of structures, or ``possible worlds'', with domain $\{1, \ldots, n\}$. We study the properties of such…
