✦ Synopsis
This paper provides a short and transparent solution for the covering cost of white-grey trees which play a crucial role in the algorithm of Bergeron et al. to compute the rearrangement distance between two multichromosomal genomes in linear time (A. Bergeron, J. Mixtacki, J. Stoye, A new linear time algorithm to compute the genomic distance via the double cut and join distance, Theor. Comput. Sci. 410 (2009) 5300-5316). In the process it introduces a new center notion for trees, which seems to be interesting on its own.
