= Cayley's mousetrap
{wiki=Cayley's_mousetrap}
Cayley's mousetrap is a combinatorial structure related to graph theory and enumerates certain types of objects, particularly rooted trees. Named after the British mathematician Arthur Cayley, the term is often used in connection with the enumeration of trees in combinatorial analysis. In a broader sense, Cayley's mousetrap refers to a technique or method in combinatorial enumeration that enables mathematicians to count specific arrangements or structures systematically.
