Abstract. We study for various tree families the distribution of the number of edgedisjoint paths required to cover the edges of a random tree of size n. For all tree families cons...
We study random cutting down of a rooted tree and show that the number of cuts is equal (in distribution) to the number of records in the tree when edges (or vertices) are assigned...
Motivated by the problem of WDM routing in all–optical networks, we study the following NP–hard problem. We are given a directed binary tree T and a set R of directed paths on ...

Catalan numbers C(n) = 1 n+1 2n n enumerate binary trees and Dyck paths. The distribution of paths with respect to their number k of factors is given by ballot numbers B(n, k) = n-...
The weight of a randomly chosen link in the shortest path tree on the complete graph with exponential i.i.d. link weights is studied. The corresponding exact probability generatin...
