This chapter discusses the modeling of a genome with several chromosomes by a set of paths and cycles. The model captures all the information about the order of the genes and their partition into chromosomes. The discussion covers genomes; breakpoints; intervals; translocation distance; double cut-and-joins (2-break rearrangement); k-break rearrangement; fusions, fissions, translocations, and reversals; and rearrangements with partially ordered chromosomes.
Keywords: genomes, chromosomes, breakpoints, intervals, translocation distance, double cut-and-joins, reversals
