The field of succinct data structures has flourished over the last 16 years. Starting from the compressed suffix array (CSA) by Grossi and Vitter (STOC 2000) and the FM-index by Ferragina and Manzini (FOCS 2000), a number of generalizations…

It is shown that for a given ordered node-labelled tree of size $n$ and with $s$ many different node labels, one can construct in linear time a top dag of height $O(\log n)$ and size $O(n / \log_\sigma n) \cap O(d \cdot \log n)$, where…

The notions of synchronizing and partitioning sets are recently introduced variants of locally consistent parsings with great potential in problem-solving. In this paper we propose a deterministic algorithm that constructs for a given…

We show that if DTIME[2^{O(n)}] is not included in DSPACE[2^{o(n)}], then, for every set B in PSPACE, all strings x in B of length n can be represented by a string compressed(x) of length at most log (|B^{=n}|) + O(log n), such that a…

We present a version of the sieve of Eratosthenes that can factor all integers $\le x$ in $O(x \log\log x)$ arithmetic operations using at most $O(\sqrt{x}/\log\log x)$ bits of space. This is an improved space bound under the condition that…

Indexing highly repetitive texts --- such as genomic databases, software repositories and versioned text collections --- has become an important problem since the turn of the millennium. A relevant compressibility measure for repetitive…

Palindromes are important objects in strings which have been extensively studied from combinatorial, algorithmic, and bioinformatics points of views. It is known that the length of the longest palindromic substrings (LPSs) of a given string…

In the k-mappability problem, we are given a string x of length n and integers m and k, and we are asked to count, for each length-m factor y of x, the number of other factors of length m of x that are at Hamming distance at most k from y.…

We prove that $n$-bit integers may be multiplied in $O(n \log n \, 4^{\log^* n})$ bit operations. This complexity bound had been achieved previously by several authors, assuming various unproved number-theoretic hypotheses. Our proof is…

We study the following substring suffix selection problem: given a substring of a string T of length n, compute its k-th lexicographically smallest suffix. This a natural generalization of the well-known question of computing the maximal…

Given a string $S$ of length $n$, the classic string indexing problem is to preprocess $S$ into a compact data structure that supports efficient subsequent pattern queries. In the \emph{deterministic} variant the goal is to solve the string…

Suffix arrays encode the lexicographical order of all suffixes of a text and are often combined with the Longest Common Prefix array (LCP) to simulate navigational queries on the suffix tree in reduced space. In space-critical applications…

We present RCT, a new compact data structure to represent trajectories of objects. It is based on a relative compression technique called Relative Lempel-Ziv (RLZ), which compresses sequences by applying an LZ77 encoding with respect to an…

Efficient methods for storing and querying are critical for scaling high-order n-gram language models to large corpora. We propose a language model based on compressed suffix trees, a representation that is highly compact and can be easily…

N-fold integer programming is a fundamental problem with a variety of natural applications in operations research and statistics. Moreover, it is universal and provides a new, variable-dimension, parametrization of all of integer…

In this paper we consider the problem of computing the longest common abelian factor (LCAF) between two given strings. We present a simple $O(\sigma~ n^2)$ time algorithm, where $n$ is the length of the strings and $\sigma$ is the alphabet…

The advent of massive datasets (and the consequent design of high-performing distributed storage systems) have reignited the interest of the scientific and engineering community towards the design of lossless data compressors which achieve…

Domains like bioinformatics, version control systems, collaborative editing systems (wiki), and others, are producing huge data collections that are very repetitive. That is, there are few differences between the elements of the collection.…

Lossless data compression has been widely studied in computer science. One of the most widely used lossless data compressions is Lempel-Zip(LZ) 77 parsing, which achieves a high compression ratio. Bidirectional (a.k.a. macro) parsing is a…

Random access to highly compressed strings -- represented by straight-line programs or Lempel-Ziv parses, for example -- is a well-studied topic. Random access to such strings in strongly sublogarithmic time is impossible in the worst case,…
