Global maximum parsimony recovery conjecture for low-score characters
Global maximum parsimony recovery conjecture for low-score characters
Let be a binary phylogenetic -tree with . For a character alignment consisting of the binary characters of parsimony score on , let . Global maximum parsimony recovery conjecture. Then is the unique maximum parsimony tree for . This is presented as slightly stronger than the preceding conjecture because it asserts unique recovery under a broader bound on ; the paper proves a corresponding result within the NNI neighborhood for a smaller range, while global recovery remains open beyond the cases noted in the discussion.
