Graph Triangulations and the Compatibility of Unrooted Phylogenetic Trees

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

We characterize the compatibility of a collection of unrooted phylogenetic trees as a question of determining whether a graph derived from these trees --- the display graph --- has a specific kind of triangulation, which we call legal. Our result is a counterpart to the well known triangulation-based characterization of the compatibility of undirected multi-state characters.
