Let $G$ be a graph and let $f$ be a positive integer-valued function on $V(G)$. In this paper, we show that if for all $S\subseteq V(G)$, $\omega(G\setminus S)<\sum_{v\in S}(f(v)-2)+2+\omega(G[S])$, then $G$ has a spanning tree $T$…
In this paper we find the generating function for the number of vertices which have $k$ elements in their subtree and use this generating function to calculate the probability that a vertex has a size $k$ subtree. We also show how this same…
A celebrated result of Otter says the number of distinct unlabelled spanning trees in $K_n$ is $\alpha^n$ up to subexponential factors for an absolute constant $\alpha>0$. In this note, we prove that for every $0<\varepsilon<\alpha$, there…
Using the special value at $u=1$ of the Artin-Ihara $L$-function, we give a short proof of the count of the number of spanning trees in the $n$-cube.
Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n$. A spanning $k$-tree of $G$ is a spanning tree with the maximum degree at most $k$, and a spanning $k$-ended-tree of $G$ is a spanning tree at most $k$ leaves, where $k\geq2$ is an integer. This…
The construction of a Laplacian on a class of fractals which includes the Sierpinski gasket ({\bf $SG$}) has given rise to an intensive research on analysis on fractals. For instance, a complete theory of polynomials and power series on…
In this work, we study the color discrepancy of spanning trees in random graphs. We show that for the Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi random graph $G(n,p)$ with $p$ above the connectivity threshold, the following holds with high probability: in every…
A general formulation is presented for continuum scaling limits of stochastic spanning trees. A spanning tree is expressed in this limit through a consistent collection of subtrees, which includes a tree for every finite set of endpoints in…
For $d\ge 2$ and an odd prime power $q$, consider the vector space $\mathbb{F}_q^d$ over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, where the distance between two points $(x_1,\ldots,x_d)$ and $(y_1,\ldots,y_d)$ is defined as $\sum_{i=1}^d…
We consider the probability that a spanning tree chosen uniformly at random from a graph can be partitioned into a fixed number $k$ of trees of equal size by removing $k-1$ edges. In that case, the spanning tree is called {\em splittable}.…
The $k$-expansion of a graph $G$ is the $k$-uniform hypergraph obtained from $G$ by adding $k-2$ new vertices to every edge. We determine, for all $k > d \geq 1$, asymptotically optimal $d$-degree conditions that ensure the existence of all…
We study the asymptotic behavior of four statistics associated with subtrees of complete graphs: the uniform probability $p_n$ that a random subtree is a spanning tree of $K_n$, the weighted probability $q_n$ (where the probability a…
We give a direct combinatorial proof of the known fact that the 3-cube has 384 spanning trees, using an "edge slide" operation on spanning trees. This gives an answer in the case n=3 to a question implicitly raised by Stanley. Our argument…
In this paper we give a linear time algorithm for computing the number of spanninig trees in double nested graphs.
In this paper, we explore some significant properties associated with a fractal operator on the space of all continuous functions defined on the Sierpi\'nski Gasket (SG). We also provide some results related to constrained approximation…
A bijection between ternary trees with $n$ nodes and a subclass of Motzkin paths of length $3n$ is given. This bijection can then be generalized to $t$-ary trees.
A graph that contains a spanning tree of diameter at most $t$ clearly admits a tree $t$-spanner, since a tree $t$-spanner of a graph $G$ is a sub tree of $G$ such that the distance between pairs of vertices in the tree is at most $t$ times…
An $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$ consists of a set of vertices $V$ and a set of edges whose elements are $r$-subsets of $V$. We define a hypertree to be a connected hypergraph which contains no cycles. A hypertree spans a hypergraph $H$ if it…
In 1986, Janson showed that the number of edges in the union of $k$ random spanning trees in the complete graph $K_n$ is a shifted Poisson distribution. Using results from the theory of electrical networks, we provide a new proof of this…
In this note we study the geometry of the component of the origin in the Uniform Spanning Forest of $\mathbb{Z}^d$, as well as in the Uniform Spanning Tree of wired subgraphs of $\mathbb{Z}^d$, when $d \ge 5$. In particular, we study…
