In the Minimum Common String Partition Problem (MCSP), we are given two strings on input, and we want to partition both into the same collection of substrings, minimizing the number of the substrings in the partition. This combinatorial…

When processing data with uncertainty, it is desirable that the output of the algorithm is stable against small perturbations in the input. Varma and Yoshida [SODA'21] recently formalized this idea and proposed the notion of average…
We revisit two well-known algorithmic problems on strings: computing a shortest unique substring (SUS) and a shortest absent substring (SAS) of a string $S$ of length $n$. Both problems admit folklore $\mathcal{O}(n)$-time solutions using…
The Average Common Substring (ACS) is a popular alignment-free distance measure for phylogeny reconstruction. The ACS can be computed in O(n) space and time, where n=x+y is the input size. The compressed string matching is the study of…
Given a string $T$ of length $n$, a substring $u = T[i..j]$ of $T$ is called a shortest unique substring (SUS) for an interval $[s,t]$ if (a) $u$ occurs exactly once in $T$, (b) $u$ contains the interval $[s,t]$ (i.e. $i \leq s \leq t \leq…
The {\em longest common subsequence (LCS)} problem is a classic and well-studied problem in computer science. Palindrome is a word which reads the same forward as it does backward. The {\em longest common palindromic subsequence (LCPS)}…
We study the problem of cutting a length-$n$ string of positive real numbers into $k$ pieces so that every piece has sum at least $b$. The problem can also be phrased as transforming such a string into a new one by merging adjacent numbers.…
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…
Partitioning a sequence of length $n$ into $k$ coherent segments (Seg) is one of the classic optimization problems. As long as the optimization criterion is additive, Seg can be solved exactly in $O(n^2k)$ time using a classic dynamic…
Sublinear time quantum algorithms have been established for many fundamental problems on strings. This work demonstrates that new, faster quantum algorithms can be designed when the string is highly compressible. We focus on two popular and…
Consider two independent random strings having same length and taking values uniformly in a common finite alphabet. We study the order of the variance of the length of the longest common subsequences (LCS) of these strings when long blocks,…
Many learning algorithms are formulated in terms of finding model parameters which minimize a data-fitting loss function plus a regularizer. When the regularizer involves the l0 pseudo-norm, the resulting regularization path consists of a…

We study an abstract optimization problem arising from biomolecular sequence analysis. For a sequence A of pairs (a_i,w_i) for i = 1,..,n and w_i>0, a segment A(i,j) is a consecutive subsequence of A starting with index i and ending with…
Constraint programming is used for a variety of real-world optimisation problems, such as planning, scheduling and resource allocation problems. At the same time, one continuously gathers vast amounts of data about these problems. Current…
