We propose the class of galled tree-child networks which is obtained as intersection of the classes of galled networks and tree-child networks. For the latter two classes, (asymptotic) counting results and stochastic results have been…
Galled trees are widely studied as a recombination model in population genetics. This class of phylogenetic networks is generalized into galled networks by relaxing a structural condition. In this work, a linear recurrence formula is given…
We give exact and asymptotic counting results for the number of galled networks and reticulation-visible networks with few reticulation vertices. Our results are obtained with the component graph method, which was introduced by L. Zhang and…
Phylogenetic networks are mathematical structures for modeling and visualization of reticulation processes in the study of evolution. Galled networks, reticulation visible networks, nearly-stable networks and stable-child networks are the…
Tree-child networks, one of the prominent network classes in phylogenetics, have been introduced for the purpose of modeling reticulate evolution. Recently, the first author together with Gittenberger and Mansouri (2019) showed that the…
Rooted binary phylogenetic networks are extensions of rooted binary trees, adding reticulation nodes that are designed to represent evolutionary processes that involve hybridization events. Enumerative combinatorics studies have counted…
Galled trees are studied as a recombination model in population genetics. This class of phylogenetic networks is generalized into tree-child, galled and reticulation-visible network classes by relaxing a structural condition imposed on…
Phylogenetic networks generalize phylogenetic trees, and have been introduced in order to describe evolution in the case of transfer of genetic material between coexisting species. There are many classes of phylogenetic networks, which can…
This paper studies the enumeration of seven subclasses of level-$2$ phylogenetic networks under various planarity and structural constraints, including terminal planar, tree-child, and galled networks. We derive their exponential generating…
In a recent paper, McDiarmid, Semple, and Welsh (2015) showed that the number of tree-child networks with $n$ leaves has the factor $n^{2n}$ in its main asymptotic growth term. In this paper, we improve this by completely identifying the…
In recent decades, phylogenetic networks have become a standard tool in modeling evolutionary processes. Nevertheless, basic combinatorial questions about them are still largely open. For instance, even the asymptotic counting problem for…
We provide precise asymptotic estimates for the number of general phylogenetic networks by using analytic combinatorial methods. Recently, this approach is studied by Fuchs, Gittenberger, and the author himself (Australasian Journal of…
Phylogenetic networks provide a general framework for modeling reticulate evolutionary processes such as hybridization, recombination, and horizontal gene transfer. In this paper, we study the asymptotic counting of binary phylogenetic…
Galled trees are studied as a recombination model in theoretic population genetics. This class of phylogenetic networks has been generalized to tree-child networks, normal networks and tree-based networks by relaxing a structural condition.…
The mathematical analysis of random phylogenetic networks via analytic and algorithmic methods has received increasing attention in the past years. In the present work we introduce branching process methods to their study. This approach…
Phylogenetic networks provide a more general description of evolutionary relationships than rooted phylogenetic trees. One way to produce a phylogenetic network is to randomly place $k$ arcs between the edges of a rooted binary phylogenetic…
Tree-child networks are one of the most prominent network classes for modeling evolutionary processes which contain reticulation events. Several recent studies have addressed counting questions for bicombining tree-child networks in which…
In previous work, we gave asymptotic counting results for the number of tree-child and normal networks with $k$ reticulation vertices and explicit exponential generating functions of the counting sequences for $k=1,2,3$. The purpose of this…
In networks that grow by isotropic redirection (IR), a new node selects an initial target node uniformly at random and attaches to a randomly chosen neighbor of the target. The emerging networks exhibit leaf proliferation, in which the…
Inference of phylogenetic networks is of increasing interest in the genomic era. However, the extent to which phylogenetic networks are identifiable from various types of data remains poorly understood, despite its crucial role in…
