The class of self-nested trees presents remarkable compression properties because of the systematic repetition of subtrees in their structure. In this paper, we provide a better combinatorial characterization of this specific family of…
Supertree construction is the process by which a set of phylogenetic trees, each on a subset of the overall set X of species, is combined into a tree on the full set S. The traditional use of supertree methods is the assembly of a large…
Tree spanners approximate distances within graphs; a subtree of a graph is a tree $t$-spanner of the graph if and only if for every pair of vertices their distance in the subtree is at most $t$ times their distance in the graph. When a…
The tree-depth is a parameter introduced under several names as a measure of sparsity of a graph. We compute asymptotic values of the tree-depth of random graphs. For dense graphs, p>> 1/n, the tree-depth of a random graph G is a.a.s.…
Cubicity of a graph $G$ is the smallest dimension $d$, for which $G$ is a unit disc graph in ${\mathbb{R}}^d$, under the $l^\infty$ metric, i.e. $G$ can be represented as an intersection graph of $d$-dimensional (axis-parallel) unit…
Following Poupard's study of strictly ordered binary trees with respect to two parameters, namely, "end of minimal chain" and "parent of maximum leaf" a true Tree Calculus is being developed to solve a partial difference equation system and…
We consider the minimum spanning tree problem with predictions, using the weight-arrival model, i.e., the graph is given, together with predictions for the weights of all edges. Then the actual weights arrive one at a time and an…
In a rooted tree, we call a vertex {\em balanced} if it is at equal distance from all its descendant leaves. We count balanced vertices in three different tree varieties. For decreasing binary trees, we can prove that the probability that a…
Trees or rooted trees have been generously studied in the literature. A forest is a set of trees or rooted trees. Here we give recurrence relations between the number of some kind of rooted forest with $k$ roots and that with $k+1$ roots on…
The treedepth of a graph $G$ is the least possible depth of an elimination forest of $G$: a rooted forest on the same vertex set where every pair of vertices adjacent in $G$ is bound by the ancestor/descendant relation. We propose an…
The weighted spanning tree enumerator of a graph $G$ with weighted edges is the sum of the products of edge weights over all the spanning trees in $G$. In the special case that all of the edge weights equal $1$, the weighted spanning tree…
Treemaps have been widely applied to the visualization of hierarchical data. A treemap takes a weighted tree and visualizes its leaves in a nested planar geometric shape, with sub-regions partitioned such that each sub-region has an area…
This is a book on weighted tree automata. We present the basic definitions and some of the important results in a coherent form with full proofs. The concept of weighted tree automata is part of Automata Theory and it touches the area of…
We show that a tree of order $n$ has at most $O(5^{n/4})$ nonisomorphic subtrees, and that this bound is best possible. We also prove an analogous result for the number of nonisomorphic rooted subtrees of a rooted tree.
We consider finite trees with edges labeled by letters on a finite alphabet $\varSigma$. Each pair of nodes defines a unique labeled path whose trace is a word of the free monoid $\varSigma^*$. The set of all such words defines the language…
Rooted, weighted continuum random trees are used to describe limits of sequences of random discrete trees. Formally, they are random quadruples $(\mathcal{T},d,r,p)$, where $(\mathcal{T},d)$ is a tree-like metric space, $r\in\mathcal{T}$ is…
Weighted Szeged index is a recently introduced extension of the well-known Szeged index. In this paper, we present a new tool to analyze and characterize minimum weighted Szeged index trees. We exhibit the best trees with up to 81 vertices…
We apply the Euler tour technique to find subtrees of specified weight as follows. Let $k, g, N_1, N_2 \in \mathbb{N}$ such that $1 \leq k \leq N_2$, $g + h > 2$ and $2k - 4g - h + 3 \leq N_2 \leq 2k + g + h - 2$, where $h := 2N_1 - N_2$.…
A transversal in a rooted tree is any set of nodes that meets every path from the root to a leaf. We let c(T,k) denote the number of transversals of size k in a rooted tree T. We define a partial order on the set of all rooted trees with n…
