We study that over some types of trees with a given number of vertices, which trees minimize or maximize the total number of subtrees. Trees minimizing (resp. maximizing) the total number of subtrees usually maximize (resp. minimize) the…

Topological materials are characterized by integer invariants that underpin their robust quantized electronic features, as famously exemplified by the Chern number in the integer quantum Hall effect. Yet, in most candidate systems, the…

Suppose that the edges of a complete graph are assigned weights independently at random and we ask for the weight of the minimal-weight spanning tree, or perfect matching, or Hamiltonian cycle. For these and several other common…

For a graph $G$, let $\lambda_1(G)$ and $\lambda_2(G)$ denote the largest and the second largest adjacency eigenvalue of $G$. The sum $\lambda_1(G) + \lambda_2(G)$ is called the \emph{spectral sum} of $G$. We investigate the spectral sum of…

Modern business and economic datasets often exhibit nonlinear, multi-scale structures that traditional linear tools under-represent. Topological Data Analysis (TDA) offers a geometric lens for uncovering robust patterns, such as connected…

Measures of tree balance play an important role in various research areas, for example in phylogenetics. There they are for instance used to test whether an observed phylogenetic tree differs significantly from a tree generated by the Yule…

In this paper, we characterize the structure and topological indices of a class of random spider trees (RSTs) such as degree-based Gini index, degree-based Hoover index, generalized Zagreb index and other indices associated with these. We…

We propose a new method to numerically compute the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ indices for disordered topological insulators in Kitaev's periodic table. All of the $\mathbb{Z}_2$ indices are known to be derived from the index formulae which are…

The threshold-$k$ metric dimension ($\mathrm{Tmd}_k$) of a graph is the minimum number of sensors -- a subset of the vertex set -- needed to uniquely identify any vertex in the graph, solely based on its distances from the sensors, when the…

Recently, Ali et al. posed several open problems concerning extremal graphs with respect to the ABS index. These problems involve characterizing graphs that attain the maximum ABS index within specific graph classes, including: connected…

The Horton-Strahler (HS) index $r=\max{(i,j)}+\delta_{i,j}$ has been shown to be relevant to a number of physical (such at diffusion limited aggregation) geological (river networks), biological (pulmonary arteries, blood vessels, various…

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…

For a tree $T$, we show that for many positive integer values of $n$, and an integer $s \geq 2$, the higher topological complexity $TC_s$ of the unordered configuration spaces of trees $U\mathcal{C}^nT$, is maximal. In other words, we prove…

Given an $n$-point metric space $(X,d_X)$, a tree cover $\mathcal{T}$ is a set of $|\mathcal{T}|=k$ trees on $X$ such that every pair of vertices in $X$ has a low-distortion path in one of the trees in $\mathcal{T}$. Tree covers have been…

We analyse the friendship paradox on finite and infinite trees. In particular, we monitor the vertices for which the friendship-bias is positive, neutral and negative, respectively. For an arbitrary finite tree, we show that the number of…

Tree balance plays an important role in phylogenetics and other research areas, which is why several indices to measure tree balance have been introduced over the years. Nevertheless, a formal definition of what a balance index actually is…
