Asymptotic Counting of Binary Phylogenetic Networks
Hao Yu, Louxin Zhang
Phylogenetic networks provide a general framework for modeling reticulate evolutionary processes such as hybridization, recombination, and horizontal gene transfer. In this paper,…
The tree-child network problem for line trees and the shortest common supersequences for permutations
Laurent Bulteau, Louxin Zhang
One strategy for reconstruction of phylogenetic networks is to solve the phylogenetic network problem, which involves inferring phylogenetic trees first and subsequently computing…
The k-Robinson-Foulds Dissimilarity Measures for Comparison of Labeled Trees
Elahe Khayatian, Gabriel Valiente, Louxin Zhang
Understanding the mutational history of tumor cells is a critical endeavor in unraveling the mechanisms underlying cancer. Since the modeling of tumor cell evolution employs labele…
Can Multiple Phylogenetic Trees Be Displayed in a Tree-Child Network Simultaneously?
Yufeng Wu, Louxin Zhang
A binary phylogenetic network on a taxon set is a rooted acyclic digraph in which the degree of each nonleaf node is three and its leaves (i.e.degree-one nodes) are uniquely la…
Two Results about the Sackin and Colless Indices for Phylogenetic Trees and Their Shapes
Gary Goh, Michael Fuchs, Louxin Zhang
The Sackin and Colless indices are two widely-used metrics for measuring the balance of trees and for testing evolutionary models in phylogenetics. This short paper contributes two…
The Sackin Index of Simplex Networks
Louxin Zhang
A phylogenetic network is a simplex (or 1-component tree-child) network if the child of every reticulation node is a network leaf. Simplex networks are a superclass of phylogenetic…
