Protected nodes and fringe subtrees in some random trees

TL;DR: Protected nodes in various classes of random rooted trees are studied by putting them in the general context of fringe subtrees introduced by Aldous (1991) to give unified and simple proofs of several earlier results, as well as new results.

Limit Laws for Functions of Fringe trees for Binary Search Trees and Recursive Trees

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the random recursive tree asymptotically converges to a Poisson distribution if and only if the number of copies of a fixed subtree is a constant.
