It is now well-documented that the structure of evolutionary relationships between a set of present-day species is not necessarily tree-like. The reason for this is that reticulat...
Given a connected, weighted, undirected graph G and a bound D, the bounded-diameter minimum spanning tree problem seeks a spanning tree on G of lowest weight in which no path betw...
Background: Although testing for simultaneous divergence (vicariance) across different population-pairs that span the same barrier to gene flow is of central importance to evoluti...

Computing consensus trees amounts to finding a single tree that summarizes a collection of trees. Three evolutionary algorithms are defined for this problem, featuring characteri...
Background: The estimation of the difference between two evolutionary distances within a triplet of homologs is a common operation that is used for example to determine which of t...
