Counting paths in perfect trees
نویسنده
چکیده
We present some exact expressions for the number of paths of a given length in a perfect $m$-ary tree. We first count the paths in perfect rooted $m$-ary trees and then use the results to determine the number of paths in perfect unrooted $m$-ary trees, extending a known result for binary trees.

Stochastic Enumeration Method for Counting Trees
The problem of estimating the size of a backtrack tree is an important but hard problem in computational sciences. An efficient solution of this problem can have a major impact on the hierarchy of complexity classes. The first randomized procedure, which repeatedly generates random paths through the tree, was introduced by Knuth. Unfortunately, as was noted by Knuth and a few other researchers,...
متن کاملCounting Lattice Paths
Counting lattice paths Maciej Dziemiańczuk A lattice path is a finite sequence of points p0, p1, . . . , pn in Z × Z, and a step of the path is the difference between two of its consecutive points, i.e., pi−pi−1. In this thesis, we consider lattice paths running between two fixed points and for which the set of allowable steps contains the vertical step (0,−1) and some number (possibly infinite...
متن کاملCounting in Trees along Multidirectional Regular Paths
We propose a tree logic capable of expressing simple cardinality constraints on the number of nodes selected by an arbitrarily deep regular path with backward navigation. Specifically, a sublogic of the alternation-free μ−calculus with converse for finite trees is extended with a counting operator in order to reason on the cardinality of node sets. Also, we developed a bottom-up tableau-based s...
متن کاملOn the oriented perfect path double cover conjecture
An oriented perfect path double cover (OPPDC) of a graph $G$ is a collection of directed paths in the symmetric orientation $G_s$ of $G$ such that each arc of $G_s$ lies in exactly one of the paths and each vertex of $G$ appears just once as a beginning and just once as an end of a path. Maxov{'a} and Ne{v{s}}et{v{r}}il (Discrete Math. 276 (2004) 287-294) conjectured that ...
متن کاملPERFECT MATCHINGS AND k-DECOMPOSABILITY OF INCREASING TREES
A tree is called k-decomposable if it has a spanning forest whose components are all of size k. In this paper, we study the number of k-decomposable trees in families of increasing trees, i.e. labeled trees in which the unique path from the root to an arbitrary vertex forms an increasing sequence. Functional equations for the corresponding counting series are provided, yielding asymptotic or ev...
