Many dynamic graph algorithms have an amortized update time, rather than a stronger worst-case guarantee. But amortized data structures are not suitable for real-time systems, where each individual operation has to be executed quickly. For…

Let $A$ be a sequence of $n \geq 0$ real numbers. A subsequence of $A$ is a sequence of contiguous elements of $A$. A \emph{maximum scoring subsequence} of $A$ is a subsequence with largest sum of its elements, which can be found in O(n)…
Geometric set cover is a classical problem in computational geometry, which has been extensively studied in the past. In the dynamic version of the problem, points and ranges may be inserted and deleted, and our goal is to efficiently…

There are efficient dynamic programming solutions to the computation of the Edit Distance from $S\in[1..\sigma]^n$ to $T\in[1..\sigma]^m$, for many natural subsets of edit operations, typically in time within $O(nm)$ in the worst-case over…
This paper addresses the problem of data compression with local decoding and local update. A compression scheme has worst-case local decoding $d_{wc}$ if any bit of the raw file can be recovered by probing at most $d_{wc}$ bits of the…
A classic data structure problem is to preprocess a string T of length $n$ so that, given a query $q$, we can quickly find all substrings of T with Hamming distance at most $k$ from the query string. Variants of this problem have seen…
We revisit the longest common extension (LCE) problem, that is, preprocess a string $T$ into a compact data structure that supports fast LCE queries. An LCE query takes a pair $(i,j)$ of indices in $T$ and returns the length of the longest…
