Given a ground set
L
of labels and a collection of trees whose leaves are bijectively labelled by some elements of
L
, the Maximum Agreement Supertree problem (SMAST) is the following: find a tree
T
on a largest label set
L
′ ⊆
L
that homeomorphically contains every input tree restricted to
L
′. The problem finds applications in several fields, e.g. phylogenetics. In this paper we focus on the parameterized complexity of this NP-hard problem. We consider different combinations of parameters for SMAST as well as particular cases, providing both FPT algorithms and intractability results.
