Random binary search trees are obtained by recursively inserting the elements $\sigma(1),\sigma(2),\ldots,\sigma(n)$ of a uniformly random permutation $\sigma$ of $[n]=\{1,\dots,n\}$ into a binary search tree data structure. Devroye (1986)…

We present a new algorithm for generating a uniformly random spanning tree in an undirected graph. Our algorithm samples such a tree in expected $\tilde{O}(m^{4/3})$ time. This improves over the best previously known bound of…

We study search trees with 2-way comparisons (2WCST's), which involve separate less-than and equal-to tests in their nodes, each test having two possible outcomes, yes and no. These trees have a much subtler structure than standard search…

In the longest plane spanning tree problem, we are given a finite planar point set $\mathcal{P}$, and our task is to find a plane (i.e., noncrossing) spanning tree for $\mathcal{P}$ with maximum total Euclidean edge length. Despite more…

The Maximum (Minimum) Leaf Spanning Tree problem asks for a spanning tree with the largest (smallest) number of leaves. As spanning trees are often computed using graph search algorithms, it is natural to restrict this problem to the set of…

In the length-constrained minimum spanning tree (MST) problem, we are given an $n$-node edge-weighted graph $G$ and a length constraint $h \geq 1$. Our goal is to find a spanning tree of $G$ whose diameter is at most $h$ with minimum…

We extend the results of B. Bollobas, O. Riordan, J. Spencer, G. Tusnady, and Mori. We consider a model of random tree growth, where at each time unit a new node is added and attached to an already existing node chosen at random. The…

The metric dimension of a graph $G$ is the minimal size of a subset $R$ of vertices of $G$ that, upon reporting their graph distance from a distingished (source) vertex $v^\star$, enable unique identification of the source vertex $v^\star$…

We consider a Gibbs distribution over all spanning trees of an undirected, edge weighted finite graph, where, up to normalization, the probability of each tree is given by the product of its edge weights. Defining the weighted degree of a…

We investigate properties of node centrality in random growing tree models. We focus on a measure of centrality that computes the maximum subtree size of the tree rooted at each node, with the most central node being the tree centroid. For…

The degree distributions of complex networks are usually considered to be power law. However, it is not the case for a large number of them. We thus propose a new model able to build random growing networks with (almost) any wanted degree…

We define some new sequences of recursively constructed random combinatorial trees, and show that, after properly rescaling graph distance and equipping the trees with the uniform measure on vertices, each sequence converges almost surely…

We consider the cost of general orthogonal range queries in random quadtrees. The cost of a given query is encoded into a (random) function of four variables which characterize the coordinates of two opposite corners of the query rectangle.…

We present the first polylogarithmic-round algorithm for sampling a random spanning tree in the (Broadcast) Congested Clique model. For any constant $c > 0$, our algorithm outputs a sample from a distribution whose total variation distance…

This article studies the limit of binary search trees drawn from Mallows permutations under various topologies. The main result, pertaining to the standard local topology for graphs, requires the introduction of a generalization of binary…

Consider the minimum spanning tree (MST) of the complete graph with n vertices, when edges are assigned independent random weights. Endow this tree with the graph distance renormalized by n^{1/3} and with the uniform measure on its…

We study the minimal spanning arborescence which is the directed analogue of the minimal spanning tree, with a particular focus on its infinite volume limit and its geometric properties. We prove that in a certain large class of transient…

For random percolation at p_c, the probability distribution P(n) of the number of spanning clusters (n) has been studied in large scale simulations. The results are compatible with $P(n) \sim \exp(-an^2)$ for all dimensions. We also study…

Applying a method to reconstruct a phylogenetic tree from random data provides a way to detect whether that method has an inherent bias towards certain tree `shapes'. For maximum parsimony, applied to a sequence of random 2-state data, each…

A spanning tree $T$ in a graph $G$ is a sub-graph of $G$ with the same vertex set as $G$ which is a tree. In 1981, McKay proved an asymptotic result regarding the number of spanning trees in random $k$-regular graphs. In this paper we prove…
