Proximity Measures for Classes of Phylogenetic Networks

Leo van Iersel, Mark Jones, Esther Julien +2

The paper defines and analyzes proximity measures that quantify how many graph modifications are needed to convert a phylogenetic network into a member of specific network classes…

Minimum Network Level Forced by Hardwired Cluster Data

Shilong Dai, Yangjing Long

Reticulate evolutionary events, such as hybridization, recombination, and horizontal transfer, can make a tree model inadequate. When evolutionary data are summarized as hardwired…

Constrained homomorphism orders

Jiri Fiala, Jan Hubicka, Yangjing Long

We study partial orders induced by constrained variants of finite graph homomorphisms: monomorphisms, embeddings, full homomorphisms, vertex-surjective, edge-surjective and surject…

The Quantum Homomorphism Orders are Universal

Yangjing Long

Quantum graph homomorphisms, introduced by Mančinska and Roberson, form a natural quantum relaxation of classical graph homomorphisms. Since this relaxation may create new compara…

An Explicit Threshold for Attaining the Semple--Steel Bound with -State Characters

Peng Li, Yangjing Long

Let be the maximum, over all binary phylogenetic trees with leaves, of the minimum number of -state characters required to define the tree. Semple and Steel proved…

Exact Leaf Powers on Cycles, Ladders, Crowns, and Multipartite Block Graphs

Peng Li, Yangjing Long

Exact \(k\)-leaf powers are graphs whose edges are exactly the pairs of leaves at distance \(k\) in a tree. We prove explicit structure theorems for exact leaf powers on several re…
