We prove that the trace of a transient branching random walk on a planar hyperbolic Cayley graph has a.s. continuum many ends and no isolated end.

Let X and Y be infinite graphs, such that the automorphism group of X is nonamenable, and the automorphism group of Y has an infinite orbit. We prove that there is no automorphism-invariant measure on the set of spanning trees in the direct…

In this series we introduce and investigate the concept of connectoids, which captures the connectivity structure of various discrete objects like undirected graphs, directed graphs, bidirected graphs, hypergraphs or finitary matroids. In…

We provide a finite equational presentation of graphs of treewidth at most three, solving an instanceof an open problem by Courcelle and Engelfriet. We use a syntax generalising series-parallel expressions, denoting graphs with a small…

The Kruskal-Friedman theorem asserts: in any infinite sequence of finite trees with ordinal labels, some tree can be embedded into a later one, by an embedding that respects a certain gap condition. This strengthening of the original…

Uniform spanning trees on finite graphs and their analogues on infinite graphs are a well-studied area. On a Cayley graph of a group, we show that they are related to the first $\ell^2$-Betti number of the group. Our main aim, however, is…

Given a graph $G$ and sets $\{\alpha_v~|~v \in V(G)\}$ and $\{\beta_v~|~v \in V(G)\}$ of non-negative integers, it is known that the decision problem whether $G$ contains a spanning tree $T$ such that $\alpha_v \le d_T (v) \le \beta_v $ for…

We obtain sharp lower and upper bounds for the number of maximal (under inclusion) independent sets in trees with fixed number of vertices and diameter. All extremal trees are described up to isomorphism.

We prove that every connected graph with $s$ vertices of degree not 2 has a spanning tree with at least ${1\over 4}(s-2)+2$ leaves. Let $G$ be a be a connected graph of girth $g$ with $v>1$ vertices. Let maximal chain of successively…

We consider two stationary versions of the Eden model, on the upper half planar lattice, resulting in an infinite forest covering the half plane. Under weak assumptions on the weight distribution and by relying on ergodic theorems, we prove…

We attempt to shed new light on the notion of 'tree-like' metric spaces by focusing on an approach that does not use the four-point condition. Our key question is: Given metric space $M$ on $n$ points, when does a fully labelled…

We prove that for any positive integer $k$, the edges of any graph whose fractional arboricity is at most $k + 1/(3k+2)$ can be decomposed into $k$ forests and a matching.

Let G be a graph with vertex set {1,...,n}. A spanning forest F of G is increasing if the sequence of labels on any path starting at the minimum vertex of a tree of F form an increasing sequence. Hallam and Sagan showed that the generating…

For any connected multigraph $G=(V,E)$ and any $M\subseteq E$, if $M$ induces an acyclic subgraph of $G$ and removing all edges in $M$ yields a subgraph of $G$ whose components are complete graphs, a formula for $\tau_G(M)$ is obtained,…

A random rooted graph is said to be sofic if it is the Benjamini-Schramm limit of a sequence of finite graphs. Given any finite graph $H$, we prove that every one-ended, unimodular random rooted graph that does not have H as a minor must be…

The basin of infinity of a polynomial map $f : {\bf C} \arrow {\bf C}$ carries a natural foliation and a flat metric with singularities, making it into a metrized Riemann surface $X(f)$. As $f$ diverges in the moduli space of polynomials,…

In the present paper, we determine the full spectrum of the simple random walk on finite, complete $d$-ary trees. We also find an eigenbasis for the transition matrix. As an application, we apply our results to get a lower bound for the…

Let $i_t(G)$ be the number of independent sets of size $t$ in a graph $G$. Alavi, Erd\H{o}s, Malde and Schwenk made the conjecture that if $G$ is a tree then the independent set sequence $\{i_t(G)\}_{t\geq 0}$ of $G$ is unimodal; Levit and…

We show that every graph is spectrally similar to the union of a constant number of forests. Moreover, we show that Spielman-Srivastava sparsifiers are the union of O(logn) forests. This result can be used to estimate boundaries of small…

The search of spanning trees with interesting disjunction properties has led to the introduction of edge-disjoint spanning trees, independent spanning trees and more recently completely independent spanning trees. We group together these…
