Non-Fringe Subtrees in Conditioned Galton-Watson Trees

We study $S(\mathcal{T}_{n})$, the number of subtrees in a conditioned Galton—Watson tree of size $n$. With two very different methods, we show that $\log(S(\mathcal{T}_{n}))$ has a Central Limit Law and that the moments of $S(\mathcal{T}_{n})$ are of exponential scale.
