Summary: We prove that $m$-dissimilarity vectors of weighted trees are points on the tropical Grassmannian, as conjecture by Cools in response to a question of Sturmfels and Pachter. We accomplish this by relating $m$-dissimilarity vectors to the representation theory of SL $_{ m }(\Bbb C)$.
Keywords: keywords tropical geometry, representation theory
