In this paper, we consider a generalized longest common subsequence problem with multiple substring exclusion constrains. For the two input sequences $X$ and $Y$ of lengths $n$ and $m$, and a set of $d$ constrains $P=\{P_1,...,P_d\}$ of…

Palindromes are strings that read the same forward and backward. Problems of computing palindromic structures in strings have been studied for many years with a motivation of their application to biology. The longest palindrome problem is…

In the longest common substring problem, we are given two strings of length $n$ and must find a substring of maximal length that occurs in both strings. It is well known that the problem can be solved in linear time, but the solution is not…

Let $A$ and $B$ be two number sequences of length $n$ and $m$, respectively, where $m\le n$. Given a positive number $\delta$, a common almost increasing sequence $s_1\ldots s_k$ is a common subsequence for both $A$ and $B$ such that for…

Given a pair of strings, the problems of computing their Longest Common Subsequence and Edit Distance have been extensively studied for decades. For exact algorithms, LCS and Edit Distance (with character insertions and deletions) are…

We consider the classic problem of computing the Longest Common Subsequence (LCS) of two strings of length $n$. While a simple quadratic algorithm has been known for the problem for more than 40 years, no faster algorithm has been found…

A classical measure of string comparison is given by the longest common subsequence (LCS) problem on a pair of strings. We consider its generalisation, called the semi-local LCS problem, which arises naturally in many string-related…

A longest common extension (LCE) query on a string computes the length of the longest common suffix or prefix at two given positions. A dynamic LCE algorithm maintains a data structure that allows efficient LCE queries on a string that can…

In this paper, we consider a generalized longest common subsequence problem, in which a constraining sequence of length $s$ must be included as a substring and the other constraining sequence of length $t$ must be excluded as a subsequence…

The problem of finding a longest common subsequence of two main sequences with some constraint that must be a substring of the result (STR-IC-LCS) was formulated recently. It is a variant of the constrained longest common subsequence…

Two strings of the same length are said to Cartesian-tree match (CT-match) if their Cartesian-trees are isomorphic [Park et al., TCS 2020]. Cartesian-tree matching is a natural model that allows for capturing similarities of numerical…
