If a centroid exists it is unique. %C A010372 Ignoring stereoisomers means that the children of a node are unordered. They can be permuted in any way and it is still the same tree. See A086194 for the analogous sequence with stereoisomers counted. %D A010372 F. Harary, Graph Theory, p. 36, for definition of centroid. %H A010372 E. M. Rains and N. J. A.
