We develop a general method of proving that certain star configurations in finit e-dimensional normed spaces are Steiner minimal trees. This method generalizes the results of Lawlor and Morgan (1994) that could only be applied to…

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 consider large uniform random trees where we fix for each vertex its degree and height. We prove, under natural conditions of convergence for the profile, that those trees properly renormalized converge. To this end, we study the paths…

This paper studies the entropy of tree-shifts of finite type with and without boundary conditions. We demonstrate that computing the entropy of a tree-shift of finite type is equivalent to solving a system of nonlinear recurrence equations.…

Given a tree T, one can define the local mean at some subtree S to be the average order of subtrees containing S. It is natural to ask which subtree of order k achieves the maximal/minimal local mean among all the subtrees of the same order…

We study strong $r$-central $2$-trees whose non-central vertices have degrees in $\{2,3\}$, focusing on the cases $r=1,2,3$. For each $r$, we derive exact degree constraints relating the maximum degree $\Delta$ to the numbers of degree-$3$…

In this article we establish the validity of Prandtl layer expansions around Euler flows which are not shear. The presence of non-shear flows at the leading order creates a singularity of $o(\frac{1}{\sqrt{\epsilon}})$. A new $y$-weighted…

For a $k$-tree $T$, we prove that the maximum local mean order is attained in a $k$-clique of degree $1$ and that it is not more than twice the global mean order. We also bound the global mean order if $T$ has no $k$-cliques of degree $2$…

The maximum number of vertices in a graph of maximum degree $\Delta\ge 3$ and fixed diameter $k\ge 2$ is upper bounded by $(1+o(1))(\Delta-1)^{k}$. If we restrict our graphs to certain classes, better upper bounds are known. For instance,…

A relaxed $k$-ary tree is an ordered directed acyclic graph with a unique source and sink in which every node has out-degree $k$. These objects arise in the compression of trees in which some repeated subtrees are factored and repeated…

It is known that any $n$-point set in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^d$, for $d = O(1)$, admits: 1) a $(1+\epsilon)$-spanner with maximum degree $\tilde{O}(\epsilon^{-d+1})$ and with lightness $\tilde{O}(\epsilon^{-d})$; 2)…

Two classical concepts of centrality in a graph are the median and the center. The connected notions of the status and the radius of a graph seem to be in no relation. In this paper, however, we show a clear connection of both concepts, as…

The connective eccentricity index $\xi^{ce}=\sum^{}_{u\in V}\frac{d(u)}{\varepsilon(u)}$, where $\varepsilon(u)$ and $d(u)$ denote the eccentricity and the degree of the vertex $u$, respectively. In this paper, we first determine the…

The celebrated Steiner tree problem is the problem of finding a set $St$ of minimum one-dimensional Hausdorff measure $H$ (length) such that $St \cup \mathcal{A}$ is connected, where $\mathcal{A} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is a given compact…

We prove that there is $c>0$ such that for all sufficiently large $n$, if $T_1,\dots,T_n$ are any trees such that $T_i$ has $i$ vertices and maximum degree at most $cn/\log n$, then $\{T_1,\dots,T_n\}$ packs into $K_n$. Our main result…

We introduce a new variant of the geometric Steiner arborescence problem, motivated by the layout of flow maps. Flow maps show the movement of objects between places. They reduce visual clutter by bundling lines smoothly and avoiding…

The paper concerns the sharp boundary regularity estimates in homogenization of Dirichlet problem for Stokes systems. We obtain the Lipschitz estimates for velocity term and $L^\infty$ estimate for pressure term, under some reasonable…

The notion of tree entropy was introduced by the author as a normalized limit of the number of spanning trees in finite graphs, but is defined on random infinite rooted graphs. We give some new expressions for tree entropy; one uses…

The generalized Kneser graph $K(n,k,t)$ for integers $k>t>0$ and $n>2k-t$ is the graph whose vertices are the $k$-subsets of $\{1,\dots,n\}$ with two vertices adjacent if and only if they share less than $t$ elements. We determine the…

We determine the maximum distance between any two of the center, centroid, and subtree core among trees with a given order. Corresponding results are obtained for trees with given maximum degree and also for trees with given diameter. The…
