Sumario:Motivated by the study of random temporal networks, we introduce a class of random trees that we coin uniform temporal trees. A uniform temporal tree is obtained by assigning independent uniform [0, 1] labels to the edges of a rooted complete infinite -ary tree and keeping only those vertices for which the path from the root to the vertex has decreasing edge labels. The -percolated uniform temporal tree, denoted by T ,, is obtained similarly, with the additional constraint that the edge labels on each path are all below . We study several properties of these trees, including their size, height, the typical depth of a vertex, and degree distribution. In particular, we establish a limit law for the size of T , which states that ∣T ,∣ np converges in distribution to an Exponential(1) random variable as → ∞. For the height ,, we prove that , np converges to in probability. Uniform temporal trees show some remarkable similarities to uniform random recursive trees.
