The median of the distance between two leaves in a phylogenetic tree (1002.1828v1)
Published 9 Feb 2010 in cs.DM
Abstract: We establish a limit formula for the median of the distance between two leaves in a fully resolved unrooted phylogenetic tree with n leaves. More precisely, we prove that this median is equal, in the limit, to the square root of 4*ln(2)*n.
