The Generalized Robinson-Foulds Metric

The Robinson-Foulds (RF) metric is arguably the most widely used measure of phylogenetic tree similarity, despite its well-known shortcomings: For example, moving a single taxon in a tree can result in a tree that has maximum distance to the original one; but the two trees are identical if we remove the single taxon. To this end, we propose a natural extension of the RF metric that does not sim...

The Exotic Robinson–schensted Correspondence

We study the action of the symplectic group on pairs of a vector and a flag. Considering the irreducible components of the conormal variety, we obtain an exotic analogue of the Robinson–Schensted correspondence. Conjecturally, the resulting cells are related to exotic character sheaves.

This article outlines the rationale for a molecular genetic study of social behavior, and explains why social insects are good models. Summaries of research on brain and behavior in two species, honey bees and fire ants, are presented to illustrate the richness of the behavioral phenomena that can be addressed with social insects and to show how they are beginning to be used to study genes that...
