Asymptotic normality of fringe subtrees and additive functionals in conditioned Galton – Watson trees . ( Extended abstract )
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider conditioned Galton–Watson trees and show asymptotic normality of additive functionals that are defined by toll functions that are not too large. This includes, as a special case, asymptotic normality of the number of fringe subtrees isomorphic to any given tree, and joint asymptotic normality for several such subtree counts. The offspring distribution defining the random tree is assumed to have expectation 1 and finite variance; no further moment condition is assumed.

Asymptotic normality of fringe subtrees and additive functionals in conditioned Galton-Watson trees
We consider conditioned Galton–Watson trees and show asymptotic normality of additive functionals that are defined by toll functions that are not too large. This includes, as a special case, asymptotic normality of the number of fringe subtrees isomorphic to any given tree, and joint asymptotic normality for several such subtree counts. Another example is the number of protected nodes. The offs...
متن کاملProtected Nodes and Fringe Subtrees in Some Random Trees
We study protected nodes in various classes of random rooted trees by putting them in the general context of fringe subtrees introduced by Aldous (1991). Several types of random trees are considered: simply generated trees (or conditioned Galton– Watson trees), which includes several cases treated separately by other authors, binary search trees and random recursive trees. This gives unified an...
متن کاملNon-crossing trees revisited: cutting down and spanning subtrees
Here we consider two parameters for random non-crossing trees: i the number of random cuts to destroy a sizen non-crossing tree and ii the spanning subtree-size of p randomly chosen nodes in a size-n non-crossing tree. For both quantities, we are able to characterise for n ∞ the limiting distributions. Non-crossing trees are almost conditioned Galton-Watson trees, and it has been already shown,...
متن کاملThe shape of large Galton-Watson trees with possibly infinite variance
Let T be a critical or subcritical Galton-Watson family tree with possibly infinite variance. We are interested in the shape of T conditioned to have a large total number of vertices. For this purpose we study random trees whose conditional distribution given their size is the same as the respective conditional distribution of T. These random family trees have a simple probabilistic structure i...
متن کاملSurvival Probabilities for N -ary Subtrees on a Galton-Watson Family Tree
The family tree of a Galton-Watson branching process may contain N -ary subtrees, i.e. subtrees whose vertices have at least N ≥ 1 children. For family trees without infinite N -ary subtrees, we study how fast N -ary subtrees of height t disappear as t → ∞.
