hello everyone , I want to know if a tree has a single centroid because I encounter some cases where I find 2 centroids...
thanks in advance ...

Obviously no, check this one : 1-2-3-4
The reason of my question was being confused by jordan 1869 theorem : " there exists a vertex whose removal partitions the tree into components, each with at most N/2 nodes. " I didn't know if it is talking about only one vertex or more ... thanks a lot ...
"There exists" means that there is at least one, but there could me multiple ones.
Actually, there can be at most 2 centroids in a tree and this happens when there's an edge whose deletion splits the tree in half.
a tree either has a single centroid or two neighbouring centroids.
If your question is that is there any tree with one centriod:
yes a star( V=1..n , E=(1,n),(2,n)...(n-1,n) ).
else
tree has at most 2 centroids that if they are 2 they are connected!
