The genomic distance problem in the Hannenhalli-Pevzner (HP) theory is the following: Given two genomes whose chromosomes are linear, calculate the minimum number of translocations, fusions, fissions and inversions that transform one genome into the other. We will present a new distance formula based on a simple tree structure that captures all the delicate features of this problem in a unifying way, and a linear-time algorithm for computing this distance.
