✦ Synopsis


The amalgamation of leaf-labeled trees into a single (super)tree that "displays" each of the input trees is an important problem in classification. We discuss various approaches to this problem and show that a simple and well-known polynomialtime algorithm can be used to solve this problem whenever the input set of trees contains a minimum size subset that uniquely determines the supertree. Our results exploit a recently established combinatorial property concerning the structure of such collections of trees.

This paper describes the algorithmic aspects of a multigrid solver based on the adaptive generation of a sequence of discretizing meshes. Non-uniform discretization is obtained by conÿning ÿner meshes to progressively smaller subdomains. New meshes are generated through bisection reÿnement according

We prove that there exists an amalgam of two finite 4-nilpotent semigroups such that the corresponding amalgamated product has an undecidable word problem. We also show that the problem of embeddability of finite semigroup amalgams in any semigroups and the problem of embeddability of finite semigro
