A general formulation is presented for continuum scaling limits of stochastic spanning trees. A spanning tree is expressed in this limit through a consistent collection of subtrees, which includes a tree for every finite set of endpoints in β«ήβ¬ d .

β¦ Synopsis
In this paper we show, for Galton-Watson tree T of resistance R, that R -R n decays exponentially in n where R n denotes the resistance of the portion of T between the root and level n. We also determine a formula for the resistance dimension of spherically symmetric random trees and prove that it is equal to the fractal dimension. We emphasize the relationship between these dimensions and the type, of being transient or recurrent, of the simple random walks on such trees.

In the paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the number of trees with n Ε½ . Ε½ . vertices and diameter k s k n , where n y k rnΒͺ a as n Βͺ Ο± for some constant a-1. We use this result to determine the limit distribution of the diameter of the random graph Ε½ .
The classical gambler's ruin problem, i.e., a random walk along a line may be viewed q raph theoretically as a random walk along a path with the endpoints as absorbing states. This paper is an i0vestigation of the natural generalization of this problem to that of a particle walking randomly on a tre
