Γ α Γ α x! where α /, a is give sequece, a Γ is the Euler gamma fuctio The situatio is eve more ivolve whe we cosier geeral trees i Sectio III-C where o restrictios o egrees are impose We preset our mai results i Sectio III We first provie i Corollary the etropy rate for m-ary search trees The we cosier -ary recursive also calle icreasig trees a i Theorem give our expressio for the etropy of such trees We exte it to geeral recursive trees i Theorem II MODELS I this sectio we escribe the cocepts of ulabele plae trees with a without restrictios o the oes out-egrees This will allow us to itrouce three moels of tree geeratio

2 A Ulabele m-ary Search Tree Geeratio Search trees are plae trees built from a set of istict eys tae from some totally orere set, for istace a raom permutatio of the umbers {,,, } A m-ary search tree is a tree i which each oe has at most m chilre; moreover, each oe stores up to m eys We efie the size of a search tree as the umber of eys The costructio of m-ary search tree ca be escribe as follows [5] If 0 the tree is empty If m the tree cosists of a root oly, with all eys store i the root If m we select m eys that are calle pivots The pivots are store i the root The m pivots split the set of remaiig m eys ito m sublists I,, I m : if the pivots are p < p < < p m, the I : p i : p i < p, I : p i : p < p i < p,, I m : p i : p m < p i We the recursively costruct a search tree for each of the sets I i of eys I orer to obtai a ulabele search tree of size we remove the eys from a search tree B Ulabele -ary Recursive Plae Tree Geeratio We cosier the followig geeratio moel of a ulabele -ary recursive plae tree Suppose that the process starts with a empty tree, that is with ust a exteral oe leaf The first step i the growth process is to replace this exteral oe by a iteral oe with successors that are exteral oes see Figure The with probability each, oe of these exteral oes is selecte a agai replace by a iteral oe with successors At the e, we remove the labels which escribe the history of tree evolutio from iteral oes C Ulabele Geeral Recursive Plae Trees Geeratio We cosier the followig geeratio moel of ulabele plae trees Suppose that the process starts with the root oe carryig a label The we a a oe with label to the root The ext step is to attach a oe with label owever, there are three possibilities: either to a it to the root as a left or right siblig of or to the oe with label Similarly oe procees further Now if a oe alreay has out-egree where the esceats are orere, the there are possible ways to a ew oe this time we o ot istiguish betwee exteral a iteral oes ece, if a plae tree alreay has oes the there are precisely possibilities to attach the th oe see Figure More precisely, the probability of choosig a oe of out-egree equals / At the e, we remove the labels from iteral oes of a tree III MAIN RESULTS I this sectio we preset our mai results I particular, we briefly aress the etropy of m-ary search trees The we preset our erivatio of the the etropy of ulabele -ary recursive trees a geeral trees We shoul poit out that i all our moels, the probability of a tree geeratio is o-uiform, a root subtrees are coitioally iepeet give their respective sizes Iee, let T be a raom variable represetig a tree t a c e 4 b Fig : Labele a ulabele -ary trees of size 4 o iteral oes Assume ow that at the root we split t ito subtrees of size,,, respectively, where The the probability P T t of geeratig tree t i all our moels satisfies P T t P,, i P T i t i where P,, is the probability of a split at the root of iteral oes ito subtrees t,, t, respectively This split probability is ifferet for m-ary search trees, -ary trees, a geeral trees, as we shall see i this sectio Throughout we shall use the followig otatio Let,, eote a -imesioal vector of o-egative itegers a m be its L orm Let,,, eote a -imesioal vector with the first cooriate equal to We ofte write istea of A The Etropy of the Ulabele m-ary Search Trees Let U eote a raom ulabele m-ary search tree with eys, geerate accorig to the process escribe earlier We write u for a arbitrary fixe m-ary ulabele search tree with eys We escribe the splittig of eys at the root of the search tree by the raom vector Y m Y,,, Y,m, where Y, I is the umber of eys that go ito the th subtree of the root If m we have Y, Y,m m a P Y m m / m f
