Minimum triplet covers of binary phylogenetic X-trees

Minimum triplet covers of binary phylogenetic X-trees

Trees with labelled leaves and with all other vertices of degree three play an important role in systematic biology and other areas of classification. A classical combinatorial result ensures that such trees can be uniquely reconstructed from the distances between the leaves (when the edges are given any strictly positive …
