In the last decade there has been an ongoing interest in string comparison problems; to a large extend the interest was stimulated by genome rearrangement problems in computationa...
In the median problem, we are given a distance or dissimilarity measure d, three genomes G1, G2, and G3, and we want to find a genome G (a median) such that the sum 3 i=1 d(G, Gi...

In genome rearrangements, the double cut and join (DCJ) operation, introduced by Yancopoulos et al., allows to represent most rearrangement events that could happen in multichromos...
We study two problems in the double cut and join (DCJ) model: sorting – transforming one multilinear genome into another and halving – transforming a duplicated genome into a p...
Background: Due to recent progress in genome sequencing, more and more data for phylogenetic reconstruction based on rearrangement distances between genomes become available. Howe...
