Abstract

We deal with the class Tn of ordered trees with n edges. Several enumeration problems concerning Tn and some of its combinatorial properties are studied. Closed-form expressions for the following enumerations are given: (1) the number of trees in Tn with k leaves, (2) the number of nodes in Tn with d children, (3) the number of trees in Tn with root degree r, and (4) the number of nodes in Tn on level l with d children.
