Holonomic equations and efficient random generation of binary trees
Abstract: Holonomic equations are recursive equations which allow computing efficiently numbers of combinatoric objects. R{\'e}my showed that the holonomic equation associated with binary trees yields an efficient linear random generator of binary trees. I extend this paradigm to Motzkin trees and Schr{\"o}der trees and show that despite slight differences my algorithm that generates random Schr{\"o}der trees has linear expected complexity and my algorithm that generates Motzkin trees is in O(n) expected complexity, only if we can implement a specific oracle with a O(1) complexity. For Motzkin trees, I propose a solution which works well for realistic values (up to size ten millions) and yields an efficient algorithm.
