A Gray Code of Ordered Trees [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 A combinatorial Gray code for a set of combinatorial objects is a sequence of all combinatorial objects in the set so that each object is derived from the preceding object by changing a small part. In this paper we design a Gray code for ordered trees with n vertices such that each ordered tree is derived from the preceding ordered tree by removing ...
