The Robinson-Foulds (RF) metric is the measure most widely used in comparing phylogenetic trees; it can be computed in linear time using Day’s algorithm. When faced with the need to compare large numbers of large trees, however, even linear time becomes prohibitive. We present a randomized approximation scheme that provides, with high probability, a (1+ε) approximation of the true RF metric for...

The goal of this paper is to determine Gröbner bases of powers of determinantal ideals and to show that the Rees algebras of (products of) determinantal ideals are normal and CohenMacaulay if the characteristic of the base field is non-exceptional. Our main combinatorial result is a generalization of Schensted’s Theorem on the Knuth–Robinson–Schensted correspondence. Mathematics Subject Classif...

Certainly one of the most thoroughly discussed and popular subjects in American sport history is the story of Jackie Robinson and the integration of organized baseball. Few topics elicit such a responsive chord or stir people’s emotions more than the Robinson saga. It is a tale of courage and heroics, both on the part of Robinson and Branch Rickey, the “Mahatma” or “Deacon” of the national game...

A Lorentzian manifold is defined here as a smooth pseudoRiemannian manifold with a metric tensor of signature (2n + 1, 1). A Robinson manifold is a Lorentzian manifold M of dimension > 4 with a subbundle N of the complexification of TM such that the fibers of N → M are maximal totally null (isotropic) and [SecN,SecN ] ⊂ SecN . Robinson manifolds are close analogs of the proper Riemannian, Hermi...
