We show that there exists a family of instances of the lot-sizing problem, such that any branch-and-bound tree that solves them requires an exponential number of nodes, even in the case when the branchings are performed on general split…

This study is dedicated to precise distributional analyses of the height of non-plane unlabelled binary trees ("Otter trees"), when trees of a given size are taken with equal likelihood. The height of a rooted tree of size $n$ is proved to…

We study the problem of learning a hierarchical tree representation of data from labeled samples, taken from an arbitrary (and possibly adversarial) distribution. Consider a collection of data tuples labeled according to their hierarchical…

A record of a rooted Cayley tree is a node whose label is the largest along the unique path to the root. In this work, we find elegant functional equations relating the generating functions for records of rooted Cayley trees and for records…

A closed-form formula is derived for the number of occurrences of matches of a multiset of patterns among all ordered (plane-planted) trees with a given number of edges. A pattern looks like a tree, with internal nodes and leaves, but also…

We are interested in the asymptotics of random trees built by linear preferential attachment, also known in the literature as Barab\'asi-Albert trees or plane-oriented recursive trees. We first prove a conjecture of Bubeck, Mossel \& R\'acz…

We study three families of labelled plane trees. In all these trees, the root is labelled 0, and the labels of two adjacent nodes differ by $0, 1$ or -1. One part of the paper is devoted to enumerative results. For each family, and for all…

We consider maximum rooted tree extension counts in random graphs, i.e., we consider M_n = \max_v X_v where X_v counts the number of copies of a given tree in G_{n,p} rooted at vertex v. We determine the asymptotics of M_n when the random…

We propose a new topological invariant of unlabeled trees of N nodes. The invariant is a set of Nx2 matrices of integers, with sum_j k^{d_{i,j}} and v_i as the matrix elements, where d_{i,j} are the elements of the distance matrix and v_i…

We study the maximal Steklov eigenvalues of trees with given number of boundary vertices and total number of vertices. Trees can be regarded as discrete analogue of Hadamard manifolds, namely simply-connected Riemannian manifolds of…

Ply number is a recently developed graph drawing metric inspired by studying road networks. Informally, for each vertex v, which is associated with a point in the plane, a disk is drawn centered on v with a radius that is alpha times the…

In this paper, we study how to draw trees so that they are planar, straight-line and respect a given order of edges around each node. We focus on minimizing the height, and show that we can always achieve a height of at most 2pw(T)+1, where…

We consider the minimum spanning tree problem on a weighted complete bipartite graph $K_{n_R, n_B}$ whose $n=n_R+n_B$ vertices are random, i.i.d. uniformly distributed points in the unit cube in $d$ dimensions and edge weights are the…

Let T be a (not necessarily positive) weighted tree with n leaves numbered by the set {1,...,n}. Define the k-weights of the tree D_{i_1,....,i_k}(T) as the sum of the lengths of the edges of the minimal subtree connecting i_1,....,i_k. We…

Codes over trees were introduced recently to bridge graph theory and coding theory with diverse applications in computer science and beyond. A central challenge lies in determining the maximum number of labelled trees over $n$ nodes with…

We give a representation for labeled ordered trees that supports labeled queries such as finding the i-th ancestor of a node with a given label. Our representation is succinct, namely the redundancy is small-o of the optimal space for…

Let $NPO(k)$ be the smallest number $n$ such that the adjacency matrix of any undirected graph with $n$ vertices or more has at least $k$ nonpositive eigenvalues. We show that $NPO(k)$ is well-defined and prove that the values of $NPO(k)$…

We provide a local probabilistic description of the limiting statistics of large preferential attachment trees in terms of the ordinary degree (number of neighbors) but augmented with information on leafdegree (number of neighbors that are…

We consider extremal problems related to decks and multidecks of rooted binary trees (a.k.a. rooted phylogenetic tree shapes). Here, the deck (resp. multideck) of a tree $T$ refers to the set (resp. multiset) of leaf induced binary subtrees…

Let P_{n,d,D} denote the graph taken uniformly at random from the set of all labelled planar graphs on {1,2,...,n} with minimum degree at least d(n) and maximum degree at most D(n). We use counting arguments to investigate the probability…
