We study the geometry of metrics and convexity structures on the space of phylogenetic trees, which is here realized as the tropical linear space of all \ ultrametrics. The ${\rm CAT}(0)$-metric of Billera-Holmes-Vogtman arises from the…

We show that in complete metric spaces, $4$-hyperconvexity is equivalent to finite hyperconvexity. Moreover, every complete, almost $n$-hyperconvex metric space is $n$-hyperconvex. This generalizes among others results of Lindenstrauss and…

A characterization of finite homogeneous ultrametric spaces and finite ultrametric spaces generated by unrooted labeled trees is found in terms of representing trees. A characterization of finite ultrametric spaces having perfect strictly…

This paper demonstrates that every ultrametric space is homeomorphic to a clade space of a pruned tree, i.e., a subspace of a tree's canopy. Furthermore, it characterizes several topological properties of ultrametrizable spaces through the…

A metric phylogenetic tree relating a collection of taxa induces weighted rooted triples and weighted quartets for all subsets of three and four taxa, respectively. New intertaxon distances are defined that can be calculated from these…

We investigate the interrelations between labeled trees and ultrametric spaces generated by these trees. The labeled trees, which generate complete ultrametrics, totally bounded ultrametrics, and discrete ones, are characterized up to…

Associated to any finite metric space are a large number of objects and quantities which provide some degree of structural or geometric information about the space. In this paper we show that in the setting of subsets of weighted Hamming…

A hypergraph $\mathcal{H}=(V,\mathcal{E})$ is a hypertree if it admits a tree $T$ with vertex set $V$ such that every edge of $\mathcal{H}$ induces a subtree of $T$. A tree like that is called a host tree. Several characterizations and…

Tropical geometry with the max-plus algebra has been applied to statistical learning models over tree spaces because geometry with the tropical metric over tree spaces has some nice properties such as convexity in terms of the tropical…

We survey the definition and some elementary properties of real trees. There are no new results, as far as we know. One purpose is to give a number of different definitions and show the equivalence between them. We discuss also, for…

In the hyperbolic plane there are infinite regular lattices. From a fix vertex of a lattice tree graphs can be constructed recursively to the next layers with edges of the lattice. In this article we examine the properties of the growing of…

We study the conditions under which the isometry of spaces with metrics generated by weights given on the edges of finite trees is equivalent to the isomorphism of these trees. Similar questions are studied for ultrametric spaces generated…

A phylogenetic tree shows the evolutionary relationships among species. Internal nodes of the tree represent speciation events and leaf nodes correspond to species. A goal of phylogenetics is to combine such trees into larger trees, called…

Phylogenetic trees are often constructed by using a metric on the set of taxa that label the leaves of the tree. While there are a number of methods for constructing a tree using a given metric, such trees will only display the metric if it…

We show that an infinite weighted tree admits a bi-Lipschitz embedding into Hilbert space if and only if it does not contain arbitrarily large complete binary trees with uniformly bounded distortion. We also introduce a new metric invariant…

The metric space of phylogenetic trees defined by Billera, Holmes, and Vogtmann, which we refer to as BHV space, provides a natural geometric setting for describing collections of trees on the same set of taxa. However, it is sometimes…

Tree convex sets refer to a collection of sets such that each set in the collection is a subtree of a tree whose nodes are the elements of these sets. They extend the concept of row convex sets each of which is an interval over a total…

Merge trees are a type of graph-based topological summary that tracks the evolution of connected components in the sublevel sets of scalar functions. They enjoy widespread applications in data analysis and scientific visualization. In this…

In this paper we investigate the geometric properties of quasi-trees, and prove some equivalent criteria. We give a general construction of a tree that approximates the ends of a geodesic space, and use this to prove that every quasi-tree…

Motivated by the work of Bestvina-Feighn ([BF92]) and Mj-Sardar ([MS12]), we define trees of metric bundles subsuming both the trees of metric spaces and the metric bundles. Then we prove a combination theorem for these spaces. More…
