Dr. Aduri and Nicole Lewis will hold a group advising session on Preliminary Oral Exams. We will review the Preliminary Oral Exam Checklist and answer any questions. We encourage any Ph.D. student planning to complete the Preliminary Oral Exam during Spring or Summer 2021, to attend this event.
Date: Tuesday, February 2, 2021
Time: 6:00 pm - 6:30 pm
Phylogenetic Decisiveness, New Ideas and Boundaries
Suppose we have a set X consisting of n taxa and we are given information from k loci from which to construct a phylogeny forX. Each locus offers information for only a fraction of the taxa. The question is whether this data suffices to construct a reliable phylogeny. The decisiveness problem expresses this question combinatorially. A precise characterization of decisiveness is known and it has proven recently that the problem is Np-Complete.
