Abstract
Given a group-based Markov model on a tree, one can compute the vertex representation of a polytope which describes the associated toric variety. The half-space representation, however, is not easily computable. In the case of or , these polytopes have applications in the field of phylogenetics. We provide a half-space representation for the -claw tree where , which corresponds to the Kimura-3 model of evolution.
