On the Number of Many-to-Many Alignments of Multiple Sequences

2 Nov 2015  ·  Steffen Eger ·

We count the number of alignments of $N \ge 1$ sequences when match-up types are from a specified set $S\subseteq \mathbb{N}^N$. Equivalently, we count the number of nonnegative integer matrices whose rows sum to a given fixed vector and each of whose columns lie in $S$. We provide a new asymptotic formula for the case $S=\{(s_1,\ldots,s_N) \:|\: 1\le s_i\le 2\}$.
