Local description of phylogenetic group-based models
Motivated by phylogenetics, our aim is to obtain a system of equations that define a phylogenetic variety on an open set containing the biologically meaningful points. In this paper we consider phylogenetic varieties defined via group-based models. For any finite abelian group G, we provide an explicit construction of codimX phylogenetic invariants (polynomial equations) of degree at most |G| t...
متن کاملGeometry of time-reversible group-based models
Phylogenetic models have polynomial parametrization maps. For symmetric group-based models, Matsen studied the polynomial inequalities that characterize the joint probabilities in the image of these parametrizations [19]. We employ this description for maximum likelihood estimation via numerical algebraic geometry. In particular, we explore an example where the maximum likelihood estimate does ...
متن کاملLow Degree Equations for Phylogenetic Group-based Models
Motivated by phylogenetics, our aim is to obtain a system of low degree equations that define a phylogenetic variety on an open set containing the biologically meaningful points. In this paper we consider phylogenetic varieties defined via group-based models. For any finite abelian group G, we provide an explicit construction of codimX polynomial equations (phylogenetic invariants) of degree at...
متن کاملDimensions of Group-based Phylogenetic Mixtures
In this paper we study group-based Markov models of evolution and their mixtures. In the algebreo-geometric setting, group-based phylogenetic tree models correspond to toric varieties, while their mixtures correspond to secant and join varieties. Determining properties of these secant and join varieties can aid both in model selection and establishing parameter identifiability. Here we explore ...
متن کاملPhylogenetic Algebraic Geometry
Phylogenetic algebraic geometry is concerned with certain complex projective algebraic varieties derived from finite trees. Real positive points on these varieties represent probabilistic models of evolution. For small trees, we recover classical geometric objects, such as toric and determinantal varieties and their secant varieties, but larger trees lead to new and largely unexplored territory...
