Published: November 2006

Graphs obtained from a binary leaf labeled ("phylogenetic") tree by adding an edge so as to introduce a cycle provide a useful representation of hybrid evolution in molecular evolutionary biology. This class of graphs (which we call "unicyclic networks") also has some attractive combinatorial properties, which we present. We characterize when a set of binary phylogenetic trees is displayed by a unicyclic network in terms of tree rearrangement operations. This leads to a triple-wise compatibility theorem and a simple, fast algorithm to determine 1-cycle compatibility. We also use generating function techniques to provide closed-form expressions that enumerate unicyclic networks with specified or unspecified cycle length, and we provide an extension to enumerate a class of multicyclic networks.

We consider Markov jump processes on a graph described by a rate matrix that depends on various control parameters. We derive explicit expressions for the static responses of edge currents and steady-state probabilities. We show that they are constrained by the graph topology (i.

Bounds on skewness and kurtosis of steady-state currents.

Current fluctuations are a powerful tool to unravel the underlying physics of the observed transport process. This work discusses some general properties of the third and the fourth current cumulant (skewness and kurtosis) related to dynamics and thermodynamics of a transport setup. Specifically, several distinct bounds on these quantities are either analytically derived or numerically conjectured, which are applicable to (1) noninteracting fermionic systems, (2) noninteracting bosonic systems, (3) thermally driven classical Markovian systems, and (4) unicyclic Markovian networks.

In this paper, we consider a macromolecule with two competitive binding sites where a ligand can bind to and gives rise to a unicyclic reaction network consisting of four states-(i) a single state with both binding sites vacant, (ii) two states with one bound site and one free binding site, and (iii) an another single state with both sites occupied. We obtain probability densities of the time-integrated current along the clockwise direction and the dynamical activity or mean number of jumps between different states for finite times at a fast diffusion limit. On the other hand, in the diffusion-limited case, ligand diffusion between the two binding sites directly connects the mono-ligated states-changing the reaction scheme.

Skewness and Kurtosis in Statistical Kinetics.

We obtain lower and upper bounds on the skewness and kurtosis associated with the cycle completion time of unicyclic enzymatic reaction schemes. Analogous to a well-known lower bound on the randomness parameter, the lower bounds on skewness and kurtosis are related to the number of intermediate states in the underlying chemical reaction network. Our results demonstrate that evaluating these higher order moments with single molecule data can lead to information about the enzymatic scheme that is not contained in the randomness parameter.
