COMMENTS

The Matula-Goebel number of a rooted tree can be defined in the following recursive manner: to the one-vertex tree there corresponds the number 1; to a tree T with root degree 1 there corresponds the t-th prime number, where t is the Matula-Goebel number of the tree obtained from T by deleting the edge emanating from the root; to a tree T with root degree m >= 2 there corresponds the product of the Matula-Goebel numbers of the m branches of T.

FORMULA
|
We give recurrence formulas for the more general case of vertices of degree k (k>=2). Let bigomega(n) denote the number of prime divisors of n, counted with multiplicities. Let g(n)=g(n,k,x) be the generating polynomial of the vertices of degree k of the rooted tree with Matula-Goebel number n with respect to level. We have a(1) = 0; if n = p(t) (=the t-th prime) and bigomega(t)=k-1 then a(n) = a(t)+[dg(t)/dx]_{x=1}; if n = p(t) (=the t-th prime) and bigomega(t)=k, then a(n) = a(t)-[dg(t)/dx]_{x=1}; if n = p(t) (=the t-th prime) and bigomega(t) =/ k and =/ k-1, then a(n)= a(t); if n = rs with r prime, s>=2, bigomega(s)=k-1, then a(n) = a(r) + a(s) + [d[g(r)g(s)]/dx]_{x=1} +[dg(r)/dx]_{x=1} +[dg(s)/dx]_{x=1}; if n = rs with r prime, s>=2, bigomega(s) =k, then a(n) = a(r) + a(s) + [d[g(r)g(s)]/dx]_{x=1} - [dg(r)/dx]_{x=1} - [dg(s)/dx]_{x=1}; if n = rs with r prime, s>=2, bigomega(s) =/ k-1 and =/ k, then a(n) = a(r) + a(s) + [d[g(r)g(s)]/dx]_{x=1}.

EXAMPLE
|
a(11)=4 because the rooted tree with Matula-Goebel number 11 is the path tree A - B - C - D - E; the vertices of degree 2 are B, C, and D; we have dist(B,C)+dist(B,D)+dist(C,D) = 1+2+1 = 4.
a(987654321) = 68, as given by the Maple program; the reader can verify this on the rooted tree of Fig. 2 of the Deutsch reference.
