Reticulation-visible networks

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let X be a finite set, mathcalN be a reticulation-visible network on X, and mathcalT be a rooted binary phylogenetic tree. We show that there is a polynomial-time algorithm for deciding whether or not mathcalN displays mathcalT. Furthermore, for all |X|ge1, we show that mathcalN has at most 8|X|−7 vertices in total and at most 3|X|−3 reticulation vertices, and that these upper bounds are sharp.
