OxTalks is Changing
During Michaelmas Term, OxTalks will be moving to a new platform (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
For now, continue using the current page and event submission process (freeze period dates to be advised).

Large degrees yield short trees
I will speak about results from an ongoing project with Louigi Addario-Berry. I will present non-asymptotic, universal height bounds for random combinatorial trees. We use these results to show height bounds on conditioned Bienaymé trees and simply generated trees. Moreover, I will introduce a stochastic domination result for combinatorial trees, implying that binary trees are stochastically the tallest. These results are based on a new bijection between trees and sequences that got introduced in a joint work with Louigi Addario-Berry, Mickaël Maazoun and James Martin.
