Abstract
In [1] it was shown that the degree (vertex) spanning tree enumerator polynomialof a connected graph $G$ is a real stable polynomial (that is, it does not vanish if all thevariables have positive imaginary parts) if and only if $G$ is a distance-hereditary graph.We prove a similar characterization for weighted graphs.With the help of this generalization, define the class of weighted distance-hereditary graphs.
