Abstract

We prove lower bounds on the expected size of the maximum agreement subtree of two random binary phylogenetic trees under both the uniform distribution and the Yule--Harding distribution and prove upper bounds under the Yule--Harding distribution. This positively answers a question posed in earlier work. Determining tight upper and lower bounds remains an open problem.
