Complex Analytic Method

Simple families of increasing trees were introduced by Bergeron, Flajolet and Salvy. They include random binary search trees, random recursive trees and random plane-oriented recursive trees (PORTs) as important special cases. In this paper, we investigate the number of subtrees of size k on the fringe of some classes of increasing trees, namely generalized PORTs and d-ary increasing trees. We use a complex-analytic method to derive precise expansions of mean value and variance as well as a central limit theorem for fixed k. Moreover, we propose an elementary approach to derive limit laws when k is growing with n. Our results have consequences for the occurrence of pattern sizes on the fringe of increasing trees.

Asymptotic Correlations

The Wiener index is analysed for random recursive trees and random binary search trees in uniform probabilistic models. We obtain expectations, asymptotics for the variances, and limit laws for this parameter. The limit distributions are characterized as the projections of bivariate measures that satisfy certain fixed point equations. Covariances, asymptotic correlations, and bivariate limit laws for the Wiener index and the internal path length are given.

Recursive Trees

In a tree, a level consists of all those nodes that are the same distance from the root. We derive asymptotic approximations to the correlation coefficients of two level sizes in random recursive trees and binary search trees. These coefficients undergo sharp sign-changes when one level is fixed and the other is varying. We also propose a new means of deriving an asymptotic estimate for the expected width, which is the number of nodes at the most abundant level. Crucial to our methods of proof is the uniformity achieved by singularity analysis.

AbstractIn this paper we consider random trees associated with the genealogy of Crump–Mode–Jagers processes and perform Bernoulli bond-percolation whose parameter depends on the size of the tree. Our purpose is to show the existence of a giant percolation cluster for appropriate regimes as the size grows. We stress that the family trees of Crump–Mode–Jagers processes include random recursive trees, preferential attachment trees, binary search trees for which this question has been answered by Bertoin [7], as well as (more general) m-ary search trees, fragmentation trees, and median-of-( $2\ell+1$ ) binary search trees, to name a few, where to our knowledge percolation has not yet been studied.
