A Corrected Parsimony Criterion for Reconstructing Phylogenies
In phylogenetic analysis, for non-molecular data, particularly morphology, parsimony optimization is the most commonly employed approach. In the past and present application of the parsimony principle, extra step numbers have been added across different characters without proper justification. This practice, however, has caused the impacts of characters to be inflated or deflated without a vali...
متن کاملParsimony with General Character Evolution
The questions of how to test hypotheses of character evolution, and incorporate character evolution into phylogenetic analysis are considered in this thesis. When a character transformation series is not linear, it is usually decoded into a set of binary characters by various binary coding methods. The disadvantages of such an approach have been discussed extensively in the literature. We propo...
متن کاملOn generalized Hadamard matrices of minimum rank
Generalized Hadamard matrices of order qn−1 (q a prime power, n ≥ 2) over GF (q) are related to symmetric nets in affine 2-(qn, qn−1, (qn−1 − 1)/(q − 1)) designs invariant under an elementary abelian group of order q acting semi-regularly on points and blocks. The rank of any such matrix over GF (q) is greater than or equal to n− 1. It is proved that a matrix of minimum q-rank is unique up to a...
متن کاملSulphate, Phosphate and Histidine Conjugations
Phenols were detoxified in the Onycophoran Peripatoides novaezealandiae by conjugation with sulphuric acid and phosphoric acid, but no evidence for a glycoside detoxication could be found. [14C]Benzoic acid was metabolized in 24h to N2-benzoyl-L-histidine, which was identified by electrophoresis, chromatography and dilution analysis. Similar conjugates were formed with p-aminobenzoic acid and p...
متن کاملFixed Points of Generalized Conjugations
Conjugation, or Legendre transformation, is a basic tool in convex analysis, rational mechanics, economics and optimization. It maps a function on a linear topological space into another one, defined in the dual of the linear space by coupling these space by meas of the duality product. Generalized conjugation extends classical conjugation to any pair of domains, using an arbitrary coupling fun...
