Phylogenetic analyses are central to many research areas in biology and typically involve the identification of homologous sequences, their multiple alignment, the phylogenetic re...
A graph G is the k-leaf power of a tree T if its vertices are leaves of T such that two vertices are adjacent in G if and only if their distance in T is at most k. Then T is a k-le...
Given a phylogenetic tree for a family of tandemly repeated genes and their signed order on the chromosome, we aim to find the minimum number of inversions compatible with an evo...
