Nonlinear Theory for Coalescing Characteristics in Multiphase Whitham Modulation Theory [PDF]
Journal of Nonlinear Science, 2020 AbstractThe multiphase Whitham modulation equations with N phases have 2N characteristics which may be of hyperbolic or elliptic type. In this paper, a nonlinear theory is developed for coalescence, where two characteristics change from hyperbolic to elliptic via collision.

Biogeography of speciation of two sister species of neotropical amazona (Aves, Psittaciformes) based on mitochondrial sequence data. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Coalescent theory provides powerful models for population genetic inference and is now increasingly important in estimates of divergence times and speciation research.

An Application of the Coalescence Theory to Branching Random Walks [PDF]
Journal of Applied Probability, 2013 In a discrete-time single-type Galton--Watson branching random walk {Z n , ζ n } n≤ 0, where Z n is the population of the nth generation and ζ n is a collection of the ...

Phylodynamic inference for structured epidemiological models.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2014 Coalescent theory is routinely used to estimate past population dynamics and demographic parameters from genealogies. While early work in coalescent theory only considered simple demographic models, advances in theory have allowed for increasingly ...

Anomalous networks under the multispecies coalescent: theory and prevalence
Journal of Mathematical Biology, 2023 A bstract Reticulations in a phylogenetic network represent processes such as gene flow, admixture, recombination and hybrid speciation. Extending definitions from the tree setting, an anomalous network is one in which some ...

Population genetics: coalescence rate and demographic parameters inference
Peer Community Journal, 2023 Inferring the demographic history of species is a great challenge in population genetics. This history is classically represented as a history of size changes, ignoring population structure.

Coalescence of Membrane Tethers: Experiments, Theory, and Applications [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2005 Tethers are nanocylinders of lipid bilayer membrane, arising in situations ranging from micromanipulation experiments on synthetic vesicles to the formation of dynamic tubular networks in the Golgi apparatus. Relying on the extensive theoretical and experimental works aimed to understand the physics of individual tethers formation, we addressed the ...
