Algebraic models of phylogenetic trees
Using the language of algebraic statistics one can describe Markov processes on tree-like graphs in terms of geometric objects, algebraic models of phylogenetic trees. I will consider phylogenetic trees arising from the binary isotropic model of evolution and their puzzling relations to objects emerging from other branches of mathematics.
