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

In a randomly grown binary search tree BST of size n, any fixed pattern occurs with a frequency that is on average proportional to n. Deviations from the average case are highly unlikely and well quantified by a Gaussian law. Trees with forbidden patterns occur with an exponentially small probabilit
