We consider document listing on string collections, that is, finding in which strings a given pattern appears. In particular, we focus on repetitive collections: a collection of size $N$ over alphabet $[1,\sigma]$ is composed of $D$ copies…
Succinct data structures give space-efficient representations of large amounts of data without sacrificing performance. They rely one cleverly designed data representations and algorithms. We present here the formalization in Coq/SSReflect…
Given an array of distinct integers $A[1\ldots n]$, the Range Minimum Query (RMQ) problem requires us to construct a data structure from $A$, supporting the RMQ query: given an interval $[a,b]\subseteq[1,n]$, return the index of the minimum…
It is well known that n integers in the range [1,n^c] can be sorted in O(n) time in the RAM model using radix sorting. More generally, integers in any range [1,U] can be sorted in O(n sqrt{loglog n}) time. However, these algorithms use O(n)…
A choice dictionary can be initialized with a parameter $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and subsequently maintains an initially empty subset $S$ of $\{1,\ldots,n\}$ under insertion, deletion, membership queries and an operation $\textit{choice}$ that…
Wavelet trees are widely used in the representation of sequences, permutations, text collections, binary relations, discrete points, and other succinct data structures. We show, however, that this still falls short of exploiting all of the…
Let $G$ be an unlabeled planar and simple $n$-vertex graph. Unlabeled graphs are graphs where the label-information is either not given or lost during the construction of data-structures. We present a succinct encoding of $G$ that provides…
We design succinct encodings of {\it series-parallel, block-cactus} and {\it 3-leaf power} graphs while supporting the basic navigational queries such as degree, adjacency and neighborhood {\it optimally} in the RAM model with logarithmic…
There are several data structures which can calculate the prefix sums of an array efficiently, while handling point updates on the array, such as Segment Trees and Binary Indexed Trees (BIT). Both these data structures can handle the these…
The tremendous expanse of search engines, dictionary and thesaurus storage, and other text mining applications, combined with the popularity of readily available scanning devices and optical character recognition tools, has necessitated…
Given string $S[1..N]$ and integer $k$, the {\em suffix selection} problem is to determine the $k$th lexicographically smallest amongst the suffixes $S[i... N]$, $1 \leq i \leq N$. We study the suffix selection problem in the cache-aware…
We solve an open problem related to an optimal encoding of a straight line program (SLP), a canonical form of grammar compression deriving a single string deterministically. We show that an information-theoretic lower bound for representing…
A central task in string processing is text indexing, where the goal is to preprocess a text (a string of length $n$) into an efficient index (a data structure) supporting queries about the text. Cole, Gottlieb, and Lewenstein (STOC 2004)…
A data structure is presented for the Mergeable Dictionary abstract data type, which supports the following operations on a collection of disjoint sets of totally ordered data: Predecessor-Search, Split and Merge. While Predecessor-Search…
We call a graph $G$ separable if a balanced separator can be computed for $G$ of size $O(n^c)$ with $c<1$. Many real-world graphs are separable such as graphs of bounded genus, graphs of constant treewidth, and graphs excluding a fixed…
This paper studies the \emph{subset sampling} problem. The input is a set $\mathcal{S}$ of $n$ records together with a function $\textbf{p}$ that assigns each record $v\in\mathcal{S}$ a probability $\textbf{p}(v)$. A query returns a random…
Given a string of length $n$ that is composed of $r$ runs of letters from the alphabet $\{0,1,\ldots,\sigma{-}1\}$ such that $2 \le \sigma \le r$, we describe a data structure that, provided $r \le n / \log^{\omega(1)} n$, stores the string…
This paper proposed a storing approach for trie structures, called coordinate hash trie. The basic idea is using a global hash table with a special hash function to store all edges of a trie. For a trie with $n$ nodes and an alphabet with…
In this paper, we revisit the problem of indexing multi-dimensional data in memory for the efficient support of multi-dimensional range queries and nearest neighbor queries. This is a classic problem in main-memory databases, where there is…
Many interesting data sets available on the Internet are of a medium size---too big to fit into a personal computer's memory, but not so large that they won't fit comfortably on its hard disk. In the coming years, data sets of this…
