We determine the limit of the expected value and the variance of the protection number of the root in simply generated trees, in P\'olya trees, and in unlabelled non-plane binary trees, when the number of vertices tends to infinity.…

The rank (also known as protection number or leaf-height) of a vertex in a rooted tree is the minimum distance between the vertex and any of its leaf descendants. We consider the sum of ranks over all vertices (known as the security) in…

The protection number of a plane tree is the minimal distance of the root to a leaf; this definition carries over to an arbitrary node in a plane tree by considering the maximal subtree having this node as a root. We study the the…

Over some types of trees with a given number of vertices, which trees minimize or maximize the total number of subtrees or leaf containing subtrees are studied. Here are some of the main results:\ (1)\, Sharp upper bound on the total number…

We study minimal vertex covers of trees. Contrarily to the number $N_{vc}(A)$ of minimal vertex covers of the tree $A$, $\log N_{vc}(A)$ is a self-averaging quantity. We show that, for large sizes $n$, $\lim_{n\to +\infty} <\log…

Given an ordered partition $\Pi =\{P_1,P_2, ...,P_t\}$ of the vertex set $V$ of a connected graph $G=(V,E)$, the \emph{partition representation} of a vertex $v\in V$ with respect to the partition $\Pi$ is the vector…

A \emph{tree-partition} of a graph $G$ is a proper partition of its vertex set into `bags', such that identifying the vertices in each bag produces a forest. The \emph{tree-partition-width} of $G$ is the minimum number of vertices in a bag…

A "tree-partition" of a graph $G$ is a partition of $V(G)$ such that identifying the vertices in each part gives a tree. It is known that every graph with treewidth $k$ and maximum degree $\Delta$ has a tree-partition with parts of size…

We consider two varieties of labeled rooted trees, and the probability that a vertex chosen from all vertices of all trees of a given size uniformly at random has a given rank. We prove that this probability converges to a limit as the tree…

We find a simple, closed formula for the proportion of vertices which are $k$-protected in all unlabeled rooted plane trees on $n$ vertices. We also find that, as $n$ goes to infinity, the average rank of a random vertex in a tree of size…

For a graph $G$, an edge-separating (resp. vertex-separating) path system of $G$ is a family of paths in $G$ such that for any pair of edges $e_1, e_2$ (resp. pair of vertices $v_1, v_2$) of $G$ there is at least one path in the family that…

The hierarchical and recursive expressive capability of rooted trees is applicable to represent statistical models in various areas, such as data compression, image processing, and machine learning. On the other hand, such hierarchical…

Mobile guards on the vertices of a graph are used to defend the graph against an infinite sequence of attacks on vertices. A guard must move from a neighboring vertex to an attacked vertex (we assume attacks happen only at vertices…

Tree-decompositions of graphs are of fundamental importance in structural and algorithmic graph theory. The main property of tree-decompositions is the width (the maximum size of a bag minus 1). We show that every graph has a…

Consider the d-dimensional lattice Z^d where each vertex is ``open'' or ``closed'' with probability p or 1-p, respectively. An open vertex v is connected by an edge to the closest open vertex w such that the dth co-ordinates of v and w…

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…

This paper investigates some properties of the number of subtrees of a tree with given degree sequence. These results are used to characterize trees with the given degree sequence that have the largest number of subtrees, which generalizes…

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…

We obtain results on the limiting distribution of the six-length of a random functional graph, also called a functional digraph or random mapping, with given in-degree sequence. The six-length of a vertex $v\in V$ is defined from the…

We consider a marking procedure of the vertices of a tree where each vertex is marked independently from the others with a probability that depends only on its out-degree. We prove that a critical Galton-Watson tree conditioned on having a…
