All Input Variables Are Essential for Almost All Logical Tree Automata

In many papers the trees were defined as terms. As in the word case there are many results concerning automata working over trees. The theory of essential variables was developed in some papers of S.Jablonsky, A.Salomaa, K.Chimev etc.
The present paper derive some combinatorial results which shows that the most of logical tree automata have the maximal complexity w.r.t. their inputs. It is shown that k-valued logic can be interpreted as tree languages recognized by logical automata. This means that the most of results obtained for k-valued functions are valid for logical tree automata.
