Title
The Joint Distribution of the Three Types of Nodes in Uniform Binary Trees
Abstract
We consider random binary trees under the uniform probability model. Such trees have three types of nodes: Nodes of outdegree 0 (the leaves), 1, and 2. We determine the exact distribution of the number of nodes of each type and show that jointly the three types of nodes asymptotically have a trivariate normal distribution. That trivariate normal limit distribution is completely characterized.
