Recently, Cenzato et al.\ proposed a new text index, called the \emph{suffixient array}, which is a subset of the suffix array and supports locating a single pattern occurrence or finding its maximal exact matches (MEMs), assuming random…
We describe an algorithm computing an optimal prefix free code from $N$ unsorted positive integer weights in time linear in the number of machine words holding those weights. This algorithm takes advantage of common non-algebraic…
We show how to build an alphabetic minimax tree for a sequence (W = w_1, >..., w_n) of real weights in (O (n d \log \log n)) time, where $d$ is the number of distinct integers (\lceil w_i \rceil). We apply this algorithm to building an…
Given a multiset $X=\{x_1,..., x_n\}$ of real numbers, the {\it floating-point set summation} problem asks for $S_n=x_1+...+x_n$. Let $E^*_n$ denote the minimum worst-case error over all possible orderings of evaluating $S_n$. We prove that…
In this article, we give a precise mathematical meaning to `linear? time' that matches experimental behaviour of the algorithm. The sorting algorithm is not our own, it is a variant of radix sort with counting sort as a subroutine. The true…
An alphabetic binary tree formulation applies to problems in which an outcome needs to be determined via alphabetically ordered search prior to the termination of some window of opportunity. Rather than finding a decision tree minimizing…
We present an algorithm that constructs the LZ-End parsing (a variation of LZ77) of a given string of length $n$ in $O(n\log\ell)$ expected time and $O(z + \ell)$ space, where $z$ is the number of phrases in the parsing and $\ell$ is the…
We introduce linear probing hashing schemes that construct a hash table of size $n$, with constant load factor $\alpha$, on which the worst-case unsuccessful search time is asymptotically almost surely $O(\log \log n)$. The schemes employ…
In this paper, we intend to present a new algorithm to factorize large numbers. According to the algorithm proposed here, we prove that there is a common factor between p and q. With this procedure, the time of factorization considerably…
Compression refers to encoding data using bits, so that the representation uses as few bits as possible. Compression could be lossless: i.e. encoded data can be recovered exactly from its representation) or lossy where the data is…
This paper is concerned with the approximation of tensors using tree-based tensor formats, which are tensor networks whose graphs are dimension partition trees. We consider Hilbert tensor spaces of multivariate functions defined on a…
Lempel-Ziv (LZ77 or, briefly, LZ) is one of the most effective and widely-used compressors for repetitive texts. However, the existing efficient methods computing the exact LZ parsing have to use linear or close to linear space to index the…
We first describe three algorithms for computing the Lyndon array that have been suggested in the literature, but for which no structured exposition has been given. Two of these algorithms execute in quadratic time in the worst case, the…
Let $\Sigma$ and $\Pi$ be disjoint alphabets of respective size $\sigma$ and $\pi$. Two strings over $\Sigma \cup \Pi$ of equal length are said to parameterized match (p-match) if there is a bijection $f:\Sigma \cup \Pi \rightarrow \Sigma…
We present ZipLex, a verified framework for invertible linear-time lexical analysis following the longest match (maximal munch) semantics. Unlike past verified lexers that focus only on satisfying the semantics of regular expressions and…
As nowadays Machine Learning (ML) techniques are generating huge data collections, the problem of how to efficiently engineer their storage and operations is becoming of paramount importance. In this article we propose a new lossless…
The compression-complexity trade-off of lossy compression algorithms that are based on a random codebook or a random database is examined. Motivated, in part, by recent results of Gupta-Verd\'{u}-Weissman (GVW) and their underlying…
An algorithm is presented that efficiently solves the selection problem: finding the k-th smallest member of a set. Relevant to a divide-and-conquer strategy, the algorithm also partitions a set into small and large valued subsets. Applied…
The properties of maximum Lempel-Ziv complexity strings are studied for the binary case. A comparison between MLZs and random strings is carried out. The length profile of both type of sequences show different distribution functions. The…
We extend the left-to-right Lyndon factorisation of a word to the left Lyndon tree construction of a Lyndon word. It yields an algorithm to sort the prefixes of a Lyndon word according to the infinite ordering defined by Dolce et al.…
