The Fourier coordinates for a phylogenetic tree model have one coordinate for each "friendly coloring" of the tree T. A friendly coloring is an assignment of one of the group elements of the model M to each of the leaves of T such that the sum of all the group elements assigned is 0.
Each variable of the ring is indexed by a sequence representing a friendly coloring, with each element of the group represented by an integer between 0 and n-1 where n is the order of the group.
The variables use symbol q.
