Abstract

The Tree Packing Conjecture (TPC) by Gyárfás states that any set of trees T<subscript>2</subscript>,...,<subscript>n-1</subscript>, Tn T<subscript>i</subscript> has i vertices pack into K<subscript>n</subscript>. The conjecture is true for bounded degree trees, but in general, it is widely open. Bollobás proposed a weakening of TPC which states that k largest trees pack. The latter is true if none tree is a star, but in general, it is known only for k = 5. In this paper we prove, among other results, that seven largest trees pack. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
