โœฆ Synopsis


Denote by (S_{n}) the set of all distinct rooted binary trees with (n) unlabeled vertices. Define (\sigma_{n}) as a total height of a tree chosen at random in the set (S_{n}), assuming that all the possible choices are equally probable. The total height of a tree is defined as the sum of the heights of its vertices. The height of a vertex in a rooted tree is the distance from the vertex to the root of the tree, that is, the number of edges in the path from the vertex to the root. This paper is concerned with the distribution and the moments of (\sigma_{n}) and their asymptotic behavior as (n \rightarrow \infty). 1994 Academic Press, Inc.

We study the distribution Q on the set B, of binary search trees over a linearly ordered set of n records under the standard random permutation model. This distribution also arises as the stationary distribution for the move-to-root (MTR) Markov chain taking values in B,, when successive requests ar

Let T be a plane rooted tree with n nodes which is regarded as family tree of a Galton-Watson branching process conditioned on the total progeny. The profile of the tree ' may be described by the number of nodes or the number of leaves in layer t n , respectively. It is shown that these two processe

The quantification of the topological features of binary trees has been applied in several branches of biology, from botany to neurobiology to animal behaviour. The methods available for quantifying tree topology differ, both in how they are applied and how they relate to one another. In this paper,
