| Abstract: | Expressions for marginal distributions of times in the time-varying coalescence process are derived. The proposed method allows also for computation of joint probability distribution for pairs, triples, etc. of coalescence times. The expressions derived are useful for (1) extending several statistics from time constant to time-varying case, (2) increasing efficiency and accuracy of simulations in time-varying evolution, and (3) debugging coalescence simulation software. |
