Overview

This analysis counts spinal networks in familiar classifications, suggesting a new approach to phylogenetic studies.

Key Points

  • The aim is to count networks that are spinal and belong to recognized classes using expanding covers.
  • Described a method for counting spinal networks within specific classes.
  • Utilized expanding covers as a combinatorial structure for encoding networks.
  • Focused on networks with a fixed number of leaves and reticulations.
  • Provided a method for counting spinal networks in a familiar classification.
  • Identified the limitations of previous methods in finding closed formulas for general classes.
