We present first algorithmic ideas for a practical and lightweight adaption of the DCX suffix array construction algorithm [Sanders et al., 2003] to the distributed-memory setting. Our approach relies on a bucketing technique which enables…
We consider two closely related problems of text indexing in a sub-linear working space. The first problem is the Sparse Suffix Tree (SST) construction of a set of suffixes $B$ using only $O(|B|)$ words of space. The second problem is the…
We revisit tree compression with top trees (Bille et al, ICALP'13) and present several improvements to the compressor and its analysis. By significantly reducing the amount of information stored and guiding the compression step using a…
We present a new algorithm for subsequence matching in grammar compressed strings. Given a grammar of size $n$ compressing a string of size $N$ and a pattern string of size $m$ over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, our algorithm uses…
Let $\D = $$ \{d_1,d_2,...d_D\}$ be a given set of $D$ string documents of total length $n$, our task is to index $\D$, such that the $k$ most relevant documents for an online query pattern $P$ of length $p$ can be retrieved efficiently. We…
Given a string $T$, it is known that its suffix tree can be represented using the compact directed acyclic word graph (CDAWG) with $e_T$ arcs, taking overall $O(e_T+e_{{\overline{T}}})$ words of space, where ${\overline{T}}$ is the reverse…

We present parallel algorithms for exact and approximate pattern matching with suffix arrays, using a CREW-PRAM with $p$ processors. Given a static text of length $n$, we first show how to compute the suffix array interval of a given…
The problem of storing a set of strings --- a string dictionary --- in compact form appears naturally in many cases. While classically it has represented a small part of the whole data to be processed (e.g., for Natural Language processing…
Efficiently word storing and searching is an important task in computer science. An application space complexity, time complexity, and overall performance depend on this string data. Many word searching data structures and algorithms exist…
We show that any embedding of a planar graph can be encoded succinctly while efficiently answering a number of topological queries near-optimally. More precisely, we build on a succinct representation that encodes an embedding of $m$ edges…
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…
There is a common problem of operating on hash values of elements of some database. In this paper there will be analyzed informational content of such general task and how to practically approach such found lower boundaries. Minimal prefix…
In this paper, we describe a new type of match between a pattern and a text that aren't necessarily maximal in the query, but still contain useful matching information: locally maximal exact matches (LEMs). There are usually a large amount…
We show how a collection of Euler-tour trees for a forest on $n$ vertices can be stored in $2 n + o (n)$ bits such that simple queries take constant time, more complex queries take logarithmic time and updates take polylogarithmic amortized…
Suppose that we are given a string $s$ of length $n$ over an alphabet $\{0,1,\ldots,n^{O(1)}\}$ and $\delta$ is the string complexity of $s$, a known compression measure. We describe an index on $s$ with $O(\delta\log\frac{n}{\delta})$…
We describe a data structure that stores a string $S$ in space similar to that of its Lempel-Ziv encoding and efficiently supports access, rank and select queries. These queries are fundamental for implementing succinct and compressed data…

Bit vectors are fundamental building blocks of many succinct data structures. They can be used to represent graphs, are an important part of many text indices in the form of the wavelet tree, and can be used to encode ordered sequences of…
The problem of Text Indexing is a fundamental algorithmic problem in which one wishes to preprocess a text in order to quickly locate pattern queries within the text. In the ever evolving world of dynamic and on-line data, there is also a…
