Geometry of phylogenetic group-based models

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: In this paper we complete the results of Sullivant and Sturmfels proving that many of the algebraic group-based models for Markov processes on trees are pseudo-toric. We also show in which cases these varieties are normal. This is done by the generalization of the discrete Fourier transform approach. In the next step, following Sullivant and Sturmfels, we describe a fast algorithm finding a polytope associated to these algebraic models. However in our case we apply the notions of sockets and networks extending the work of Buczynska and Wisniewski who introduced it for the binary case.
