The weight of a subtree $T_1$ of $T$ is defined as the product of weights of vertices and edges of $T_1$. We obtain a linear-time algorithm to count the sum of weights of subtrees of $T$. As applications, we characterize the tree with the diameter at least $d$, which has the maximum number of subtrees, and we characterize the tree with the maximum degree at least $\\Delta$, which has the minimum number of subtrees.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2006-09-17T08:16:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C05" ], "keywords": [ "enumeration", "minimum number", "maximum degree", "maximum number", "linear-time algorithm" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 20, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2006math......9475Y" } } }
