Abstract: | In this paper, we investigate structural properties of multicast trees that give rise to the so-called multicast power law. The law asserts that the ratio R(n) of the average number of links in a multicast tree connecting the source to n destinations to the average number of links in a unicast path, satisfies asymptotically R(n)/spl ap/cn/sup /spl phi//, 0
