The Burrows-Wheeler-Transform (BWT) is an invertible permutation of a text known to be highly compressible but also useful for sequence analysis, what makes the BWT highly attractive for lossless data compression. In this paper, we present…

Motivation The Burrows-Wheeler transform (BWT) is the foundation of many algorithms for compression and indexing of text data, but the cost of computing the BWT of very large string collections has prevented these techniques from being…

In the adversarially robust streaming model, a stream of elements is presented to an algorithm and is allowed to depend on the output of the algorithm at earlier times during the stream. In the classic insertion-only model of data streams,…

The Burrows-Wheeler transform (BWT) is a reversible transform that converts a string $w$ into another string $\mathsf{BWT}(w)$. The size of the run-length encoded BWT (RLBWT) can be interpreted as a measure of repetitiveness in the class of…

We introduce the poly-streaming model, a generalization of streaming models of computation in which $k$ processors process $k$ data streams containing a total of $N$ items. The algorithm is allowed $O\left(f(k)\cdot M_1\right)$ space, where…

Many classical algorithms are known for computing the convex hull of a set of $n$ point in $\mathbb{R}^2$ using $O(n)$ space. For large point sets, whose size exceeds the size of the working space, these algorithms cannot be directly used.…

We present a new semi-external algorithm that builds the Burrows--Wheeler transform variant of Bauer et al. (a.k.a., BCR BWT) in linear expected time. Our method uses compression techniques to reduce computational costs when the input is…

We study whether, when restricted to using polylogarithmic memory and polylogarithmic passes, we can achieve qualitatively better data compression with multiple read/write streams than we can with only one. We first show how we can achieve…

Given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ on $n$ vertices, $m$ edges, and an integer $t\ge 1$, a subgraph $(V,E_S)$, $E_S\subseteq E$ is called a $t$-spanner if for any pair of vertices $u,v \in V$, the distance between them in the subgraph is at…
