Critical trees are neither too short nor too fat

We establish lower tail bounds for the height, and upper tail bounds for the width, of critical size-conditioned Bienaymé trees. Our bounds are optimal at this level of generality. We also obtain precise asymptotics for offspring distributions within the domain of attraction of a Cauchy distribution, under a local regularity assumption. Finally, we pose some questions on the possible asymptotic behaviours of the height and width of critical size-conditioned Bienaymé trees.
