The Shape of Unlabeled Rooted Random Trees

We consider the number of nodes in the levels of unlabelled rooted random trees and show that the stochastic process given by the properly scaled level sizes weakly converges to the local time of a standard Brownian excursion. Furthermore we compute the average and the distribution of the height of such trees. These results extend existing results for conditioned Galton-Watson trees and forests to the case of unlabelled rooted trees and show that they behave in this respect essentially like a conditioned Galton-Watson process.Comment: 34 pages, 1 figur

Graph limits of random graphs from a subset of connected kk-trees

For any set $\Omega$ of non-negative integers such that $\{0,1\}\subseteq \Omega$ and $\{0,1\}\ne \Omega$, we consider a random $\Omega$-$k$-tree ${\sf G}_{n,k}$ that is uniformly selected from all connected $k$-trees of $(n+k)$ vertices where the number of $(k+1)$-cliques that contain any fixed $k$-clique belongs to $\Omega$. We prove that ${\sf G}_{n,k}$, scaled by $(kH_{k}\sigma_{\Omega})/(2\sqrt{n})$ where $H_{k}$ is the $k$-th Harmonic number and $\sigma_{\Omega}>0$, converges to the Continuum Random Tree $\mathcal{T}_{{\sf e}}$. Furthermore, we prove the local convergence of the rooted random $\Omega$-$k$-tree ${\sf G}_{n,k}^{\circ}$ to an infinite but locally finite random $\Omega$-$k$-tree ${\sf G}_{\infty,k}$.Comment: 21 pages, 6 figure
