Abstract
We characterize the compatibility of a collection of unrooted phylogenetic trees as a question of determining whether a graph derived from these trees - the display graph - has a specific kind of triangulation, which we call legal. Our result is a counterpart to the well-known triangulation-based characterization of the compatibility of undirected multi-state characters.
