The suffix tree is arguably the most fundamental data structure on strings: introduced by Weiner (SWAT 1973) and McCreight (JACM 1976), it allows solving a myriad of computational problems on strings in linear time. Motivated by its large…

Text indexing is a fundamental and well-studied problem. Classic solutions either replace the original text with a compressed representation, e.g., the FM-index and its variants, or keep it uncompressed but attach some redundancy - an index…

A deterministic BSP algorithm for constructing the suffix array of a given string is presented, based on a technique which we call accelerated sampling. It runs in optimal O(n/p) local computation and communication, and requires a near…
