An analysis of the size of the minimum dominating sets in random recursive trees, using the Cockayne-Goodman-Hedetniemi algorithm

چکیده
A random recursive tree on n vertices is either a single isolated vertex (for n = 1) or is a vertex vn connected to a vertex chosen uniformly at random from a random recursive tree on n− 1 vertices. Such trees have been studied before (see [11]) as models of boolean circuits. More recently, modifications of such models [2], have been used to model for the web and other “power-law” networks. A smallest dominating set in a tree can be found in linear time using the algorithm of Cockayne, Goodman and Hedetniemi [4]. We prove that there exists a constant d ' 0.3745... such that the size of a smallest dominating set in a random recursive tree on n vertices is dn+o(n) with probability approaching one as n tends to infinity. The result is obtained by analysing the algorithm of Cockayne, Goodman and Hedetniemi. ∗This research was supported by EPSRC grant EP/DO59372/1. The first author was also supported in this work by a LaBRI ENSIERB visiting research fellowship.

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.

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
متن کاملThe 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...
متن کاملThe 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.
متن کاملLimit 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,...
