Tree planting is widely advocated and applied in urban areas, with large-scale projects underway in cities globally …. Numerous potential benefits are used to justify these planting campaigns. However, reports of poor tree survival raise … different supporting conditions—relating not only to the type and placement of the tree, but also to the broader urban system …

A mean of a sequence π = (x1, x2, . . . , xk) of elements of a finite metric space (X, d) is an element x for which is minimum. The function Mean whose domain is the set of all finite sequences on X and is defined by Mean(π) = { x | x is a mean of π } is called the mean function on X. In this...

Agents are connected each other through a tree. Each link of the tree has an associated cost and the total cost of the … tree must be divided among the agents. In this paper we assume that agents are asymmetric (think on countries that use … production and demand of a good that can be sent through the tree. This heterogeneity implies that the links are not equally …
