Phylosymmetric algebras: mathematical properties of a new tool in phylogenetics
Michael Hendriksen, Julia A. Shore
In phylogenetics it is of interest for rate matrix sets to satisfy closure under matrix multiplication as this makes finding the set of corresponding transition matrices possible w…
Tree-metrizable HGT networks
Michael Hendriksen, Andrew Francis
Phylogenetic trees are often constructed by using a metric on the set of taxa that label the leaves of the tree. While there are a number of methods for constructing a tree using a…
A partial order and cluster-similarity metric on rooted phylogenetic trees
Michael Hendriksen, Andrew Francis
Metrics on rooted phylogenetic trees are integral to a number of areas of phylogenetic analysis. Cluster-similarity metrics have recently been introduced in order to limit skew in…
Tree-Based Unrooted Nonbinary Phylogenetic Networks
Michael Hendriksen
Phylogenetic networks are a generalisation of phylogenetic trees that allow for more complex evolutionary histories that include hybridisation-like processes. It is of considerable…
