چکیده

We introduce the problem of isolating several nodes in random recursive trees by successively removing random edges, and study the number of random cuts that are necessary for the isolation. In particular, we analyze the number of random cuts required to isolate ` selected nodes in a size-n random recursive tree for three different selection rules, namely (i ) isolating all of the nodes labelled 1,2. . . ,` (thus nodes located close to the root of the tree), (i i ) isolating all of the nodes labelled n +1°`,n +2°`, . . .n (thus nodes located at the fringe of the tree), and (i i i ) isolating ` nodes in the tree, which are selected at random before starting the edge-removal procedure. Using a generating functions approach we determine for these selection rules the limiting distribution behaviour of the number of cuts to isolate all selected nodes, for ` fixed and n !1.

Branches in random recursive k-ary trees

In this paper, using generalized {polya} urn models we find the expected value of the size of a branch in recursive $k$-ary trees. We also find the expectation of the number of nodes of a given outdegree in a branch of such trees.

Degrees in $k$-minimal label random recursive trees

This article describes the limiting distribution of the degrees of nodes has been derived for a kind of random tree named k-minimal label random recursive tree, as the size of the tree goes to infinity. The outdegree of the tree is equal to the number of customers in a pyramid marketing agency immediatly alluring

The eccentric connectivity index of bucket recursive trees

If $G$ is a connected graph with vertex set $V$, then the eccentric connectivity index of $G$, $xi^c(G)$, is defined as $sum_{vin V(G)}deg(v)ecc(v)$ where $deg(v)$ is the degree of a vertex $v$ and $ecc(v)$ is its eccentricity. In this paper we show some convergence in probability and an asymptotic normality based on this index in random bucket recursive trees.

The cut-tree of large recursive trees

Imagine a graph which is progressively destroyed by cutting its edges one after the other in a uniform random order. The so-called cut-tree records key steps of this destruction process. It can be viewed as a random metric space equipped with a natural probability mass. In this work, we show that the cut-tree of a random recursive tree of size n, rescaled by the factor n−1 lnn, converges in pro...

Limit distribution of the degrees in scaled attachment random recursive trees

We study the limiting distribution of the degree of a given node in a scaled attachment random recursive tree, a generalized random recursive tree, which is introduced by Devroye et. al (2011). In a scaled attachment random recursive tree, every node $i$ is attached to the node labeled $lfloor iX_i floor$ where $X_0$, $ldots$ , $X_n$ is a sequence of i.i.d. random variables, with support in [0,...
