We consider both analytically and numerically the creation conditions of diverse hierarchical trees. A connection between the probabilities to create hierarchical levels and the probability to associate these levels into a united structure are studied. We argue that a consistent probabilistic picture requires the use of deformed algebra. Our consideration is based on the study of the main types of hierarchical trees, among which both regular and degenerate ones are studied analytically, while the creation probabilities of Fibonacci and free-scale trees are determined numerically. We find a general expression for the creation probability of an arbitrary tree and calculate the sum of terms of deformed geometrical progression that results from the consideration of the degenerate tree.
