A tanglegram consists of two rooted binary plane trees with the same number of leaves and a perfect matching between the two leaf sets. Tanglegrams are drawn with the leaves on two parallel lines, the trees on either side of the strip…

The Pathwidth Theorem states that if a class of graphs has unbounded pathwidth, then it contains all trees as graph minors. We prove a similar result for dense graphs. More precisely, we give a finite family of tree-like patterns and prove…

Let $G$ be a group. The directed endomorphism graph, \dend of $G$ is a directed graph with vertex set $G$ and there is a directed edge from the vertex `$a$' to the vertex `$\, b$' $(a \neq b) $ if and only if there exists an endomorphism on…

Let Phi be a reduced root system of rank r. A Weyl group multiple Dirichlet series for Phi is a Dirichlet series in r complex variables s_1,...,s_r, initially converging for Re(s_i) sufficiently large, that has meromorphic continuation to…

A cycle basis in an undirected graph is a minimal set of simple cycles whose symmetric differences include all Eulerian subgraphs of the given graph. We define a rooted cycle basis to be a cycle basis in which all cycles contain a specified…

Let $K$ be a global function field of characteristic $p$, and let $\Gamma$ be a finite-index subgroup of an arithmetic group defined with respect to $K$ and such that any torsion element of $\Gamma$ is a $p$-torsion element. We define…

Phylogenetic networks are a generalization of phylogenetic trees that are used to represent non-tree-like evolutionary histories that arise in organisms such as plants and bacteria, or uncertainty in evolutionary histories. An…

In this article we present a method to reconstruct the interconnectedness of dynamically related stochastic processes, where the interactions are bi-directional and the underlying topology is a tree. Our approach is based on multivariate…

Given a tree of weighted vertices, it is sometimes possible to break the tree into two equally-weighted subtrees within an allowable error. We give a fast algorithm that finds an edge which breaks the tree into equal-weight components or…

We classify $\mathcal{R}$- and $\mathcal{L}$-cross-sections of partial wreath product of inverse semigroups. As a corollary, we get the description of $\mathcal{R}$- and $\mathcal{L}$-cross-sections of the semigroupof partial automorphisms…

A rooted phylogenetic network is a directed acyclic graph with a single root, whose sinks correspond to a set of species. As such networks are useful for representing the evolution of species that have undergone reticulate evolution, there…

We prove that if a graph has a tree-decomposition of width at most w, then it has a tree-decomposition of width at most w with certain desirable properties. We will use this result in a subsequent paper to show that every 2-connected graph…

Given a finite group $G$ and its representation $\rho$, the corresponding McKay graph is a graph $\Gamma(G,\rho)$ whose vertices are the irreducible representations of $G$; the number of edges between two vertices $\pi,\tau$ of…

We prove that every amenable one-ended Cayley graph has an invariant spanning tree of one end. More generally, for any 1-ended amenable unimodular random graph we construct a factor of iid percolation (jointly unimodular subgraph) that is…

A large class of phylogenetic networks can be obtained from trees by the addition of horizontal edges between the tree edges. These networks are called tree based networks. Reticulation-visible networks and child-sibling networks are all…

The article considers the procedure of connection of graphs to the edges of a cyclic graph and its influence on the sandpile group of the graph thus obtained. A series of classes of graphs CH_n(a_1,...,a_n) is defined. Recurrent and…

The overlap graphs of subtrees in a tree (SOGs) generalise many other graphs classes with set representation characterisations. The complexity of recognising SOGs in open. The complexities of recognising many subclasses of SOGs are known.…

Let $p\ge 5$ be a prime and let $P$ be a Sylow $p$-subgroup of a finite symmetric group. To every irreducible character of $P$ we associate a collection of labelled, complete $p$-ary trees. The main results of this article describe Sylow…

Cayley's formula states that the number of labelled trees on $n$ vertices is $n^{n-2}$, and many of the current proofs involve complex structures or rigorous computation. We present a bijective proof of the formula by providing an…

A linkage diagram is obtained from the Carter diagram $\Gamma$ by adding an extra root $\gamma$, so that the resulting subset of roots is linearly independent. With every linkage diagram we associate the linkage label vector…
