Prolonged delays in human microbiota transmission after a controlled antibiotic perturbation

This study investigates gut microbiome colonization dynamics after antibiotic use, finding prolonged delays in microbial transmission and ecological barriers to colonization.

Bijections between the multifurcating unlabeled rooted trees and the positive integers

The paper establishes bijections between unlabeled multifurcating rooted trees and positive integers, extending previous results for bifurcating trees.

On a mathematical connection between single-elimination sports tournaments and evolutionary trees

The paper connects the enumeration of game sequences in single-elimination sports tournaments to labeled histories in phylogenetics, providing a recursive formula for sequences with simultaneous branching events.

The probability of joint monophyly of all species in an arbitrary species tree.

The paper derives the probability of joint monophyly for arbitrary numbers of groups in arbitrary species trees, generalizing previous results and providing bounds.

FSTruct: An Fst-based tool for measuring ancestry variation in inference of population structure

FSTruct measures ancestry variation in population structure using a normalized FST statistic and applies it to inferred population data.

On the Colijn-Plazzotta numbering scheme for unlabeled binary rooted trees

The paper analyzes the Colijn-Plazzotta numbering scheme for unlabeled binary rooted trees, deriving recursions for the smallest and largest ranks associated with trees of a given number of leaves and showing exponential growth for the smallest rank.

Genetic Adaptation in New York City Rats

The paper investigates genetic adaptation in New York City rats by analyzing whole-genome sequences to identify signatures of selection related to urban living.

A Metric Space of Ranked Tree Shapes and Ranked Genealogies

The paper introduces a metric space for ranked genealogies to analyze evolutionary processes across multiple time periods and applies it to infectious disease studies.

Assortative mating and the dynamical decoupling of genetic admixture levels from phenotypes that differ between source populations

The paper develops a model showing how genetic admixture and phenotypes decouple over time, especially with assortative mating and few genetic loci influencing the trait.

Assortative mating by population of origin in a mechanistic model of admixture

This paper develops a mechanistic model to study ancestry-assortative mating in admixed populations and shows how it affects admixture fraction variance.

Designing gene drives to limit spillover to non-target populations

This study uses mathematical models to show that differential-targeting gene drives can limit spillover to non-target populations, but only under specific parameter configurations and low migration rates.

FST and the triangle inequality for biallelic markers

This paper proves that FST does not satisfy the triangle inequality for biallelic markers across three populations and examines its implications in human genome-wide data.

Disease and introgression explain the long-lasting contact zone of Modern Humans and Neanderthals and its eventual destabilization

This paper proposes that disease dynamics and genetic introgression explain the long-lasting contact zone between Neanderthals and modern humans and its eventual destabilization.
