چکیده

We propose a new, direct, correlation-free approach based on central moments of profiles to the asymptotics of width (size of the most abundant level) in random trees of logarithmic height. The approach is simple but gives very precise estimates for expected width, central moments of the width, and almost sure convergence. It is widely applicable to random trees of logarithmic height, including recursive trees, binary search trees, quadtrees, plane-oriented ordered trees and other varieties of increasing trees. Abbreviated title: Width of random log trees. MSC 2000 subject classifications: Primary 60C05; secondary 05C05 68P10.

Profiles of random trees: Plane-oriented recursive trees

We summarize several limit results for the profile of random plane-oriented recursive trees. These include the limit distribution of the normalized profile, asymptotic bimodality of the variance, asymptotic approximations of the expected width and the correlation coefficients of two level sizes. We also unveil an unexpected connection between the profile of plane-oriented recursive trees (with ...

Profiles of random trees: plane-oriented recursive trees1

We derive several limit results for the profile of random plane-oriented recursive trees. These include the limit distribution of the normalized profile, asymptotic bimodality of the variance, asymptotic approximation to the expected width and the correlation coefficients of two level sizes. Most of our proofs are based on a method of moments. We also discover an unexpected connection between t...

The Subtree Size Profile of Bucket Recursive Trees

Kazemi (2014) introduced a new version of bucket recursive trees as another generalization of recursive trees where buckets have variable capacities. In this paper, we get the $p$-th factorial moments of the random variable $S_{n,1}$ which counts the number of subtrees size-1 profile (leaves) and show a phase change of this random variable. These can be obtained by solving a first order partial...
