Combinatorial characterization of a certain class of words and a conjectured connection with general subclasses of phylogenetic tree-child networks

Abstract The combinatorial study of phylogenetic networks has attracted much attention in recent times. In particular, one class of them, the so-called tree-child networks, are becoming the most prominent ones. However, their combinatorial properties are largely unknown. In this paper we address the...
