%C F. Harary and E. M. Palmer derive certain functional equations and, using the methods of G. Polya (Acta Math. 68 (1937), 145 254) and R. Otter (Ann. of Math. (2) 49 (1948), 583 - 599; Math. Rev. 10, 53), prove that the limiting probability of a fixed point in a large random tree, whether rooted or not, is 0.6995 ...
