We give closed form expressions for the numbers of multi-rooted plane trees with specified degrees of root vertices. This results in an infinite number of integer sequences some of which are known to have an alternative interpretation. We also propose recursion relations for numbers of such trees as well as for the corresponding generating functions. Explicit expressions for the generating functions corresponding to plane trees having two and three roots are derived. As a by-product, we obtain a new binomial identity and a conjecture relating hypergeometric functions.

In this paper we enumerate the cardinalities for the set of all vertices of outdegree $\ge k$ at level $\ge \ell$ among all rooted ordered $d$-trees with $n$ edges. Our results unite and generalize several previous works in the literature.
Two decades ago, Chauve, Dulucq and Guibert showed that the number of rooted trees on the vertex set $[n+1]$ in which exactly $k$ children of the root are lower-numbered than the root is $\binom{n}{k} \, n^{n-k}$. Here I give a simpler proof of this result.
This paper addresses the enumeration of rooted and unrooted hypermaps of a given genus. For rooted hypermaps the enumeration method consists of considering the more general family of multirooted hypermaps, in which darts other than the root dart are distinguished. We give functional equations for the generating series counting multirooted hypermaps of a given genus by number of darts, vertices, edges, faces and the degrees of the vertices containing the distinguished darts. We solve these equations to get parametric expressions of the generating functions of rooted hypermaps of low genus. We a…
A one-to-one correspondence is proved between the N-rooted ribbon graphs, or maps, with e edges and the (e-N+1)-loop Feynman diagrams of a certain quantum field theory. This result is used to obtain explicit expressions and relations for the generating functions of N-rooted maps and for the numbers of N-rooted maps with a given number of edges using the path integral approach applied to the corresponding quantum field theory.
Fano Bott manifolds bijectively correspond to signed rooted forests with some equivalence relation. Using this bijective correspondence, we enumerate the isomorphism classes of Fano Bott manifolds and the diffeomorphism classes of indecomposable Fano Bott manifolds. We also observe that the signed rooted forests with the equivalence relation bijectively correspond to rooted triangular cacti.
The coefficients of the chain polynomial of a finite poset enumerate chains in the poset by their number of elements. The chain polynomials of the partition lattices and their standard type $B$ analogues are shown to have only real roots. The real-rootedness of the chain polynomial is conjectured for all geometric lattices and is shown to be preserved by the pyramid and the prism operations on Cohen--Macaulay posets. As a result, new families of convex polytopes whose face lattices have real-rooted chain polynomials are presented. An application to the face enumeration of the second barycentri…
We give exact formulas for the transmission (i.e. the sum of all distances between vertices) of perfect trees and rooted powers of (connected finite) graphs.
We present several bijections, in terms of combinatorial objects counted by the Schröder numbers, that are then used (via coloring) for the construction and enumeration of rational Schröder paths with integer slope, ordered rooted trees, and simple rooted outerplanar maps. On the other hand, we derive partial Bell polynomial identities for the little and large Schröder numbers, which allow us to obtain explicit enumeration formulas.
We consider two varieties of labeled rooted trees, and the probability that a vertex chosen from all vertices of all trees of a given size uniformly at random has a given rank. We prove that this probability converges to a limit as the tree size goes to infinity.
The perturbation expansion of the solution of a fixed point equation or of an ordinary differential equation may be expressed as a power series in the perturbation parameter. The terms in this series are indexed by rooted trees and depend on a parameter in the equation in a way determined by the structure of the tree. Power series of this form may be considered more generally; there are two interesting and useful group structures on these series, corresponding to operations of composition and substitution. The composition operation defines the Butcher group, an infinite dimensional group that …
In this article, we construct explicit examples of pairs of non-isomorphic trees with the same restricted $U$-polynomial for every $k$; by this we mean that the polynomials agree on terms with degree at most $k+1$. The main tool for this construction is a generalization of the $U$-polynomial to rooted graphs, which we introduce and study in this article. Most notably we show that rooted trees can be reconstructed from its rooted $U$-polynomial.
We present new short proofs of known spanning tree enumeration formulae for threshold and Ferrers graphs by showing that the Laplacian matrices of such graphs admit triangular rank-one perturbations. We then characterize the set of graphs whose Laplacian matrices admit triangular rank-one perturbations as the class of special 2-threshold graphs, introduced by Hung, Kloks, and Villaamil. Our work introduces (1) a new characterization of special 2-threshold graphs that generalizes the characterization of threshold graphs in terms of isolated and dominating vertices, and (2) a spanning tree enume…
Determining whether two graphs are isomorphic is an important and difficult problem in graph theory. One way to make progress towards this problem is by finding and studying graph invariants that distinguish large classes of graphs. Stanley conjectured that his chromatic symmetric function distinguishes all trees, which has remained unresolved. Recently, Hasebe and Tsujie introduced an analogue of Stanley's function for posets, called the strict order quasisymmetric function, and proved that it distinguishes all rooted trees. In this paper, we devise a procedure to explicitly reconstruct a roo…
Rooted triples, rooted binary phylogenetic trees on three leaves, are sufficient to encode rooted binary phylogenetic trees. That is, if $\mathcal T$ and $\mathcal T'$ are rooted binary phylogenetic $X$-trees that infers the same set of rooted triples, then $\mathcal T$ and $\mathcal T'$ are isomorphic. However, in general, this sufficiency does not extend to rooted binary phylogenetic networks. In this paper, we show that trinets, phylogenetic network analogues of rooted triples, are sufficient to encode rooted binary orchard networks. Rooted binary orchard networks naturally generalise roote…
