String matching is the problem of deciding whether a given $n$-bit string contains a given $k$-bit pattern. We study the complexity of this problem in three settings. Communication complexity. For small $k$, we provide near-optimal upper…
We say that an algorithm is stable if small changes in the input result in small changes in the output. This kind of algorithm stability is particularly relevant when analyzing and visualizing time-varying data. Stability in general plays…
String complexity is defined as the cardinality of a set of all distinct words (factors) of a given string. For two strings, we introduce the joint string complexity as the cardinality of a set of words that are common to both strings.…
Nonlinear effects were observed in a forced vibrating string. The motion of the string becomes elliptic as the amplitude of the vibration increases. The fundamental resonance frequency depends on the amplitude of the vibration. At…
The theory of sequences, supported by many SMT solvers, can model program data types including bounded arrays and lists. Sequences are parameterized by the element data type and provide operations such as accessing elements, concatenation,…
In this master thesis we analyze the complexity of sorting a set of strings. It was shown that the complexity of sorting strings can be naturally expressed in terms of the prefix trie induced by the set of strings. The model of computation…
A binary string representation of prime occurrences is a sequence of bits, where $1$ entries encode positions of prime numbers. This is a convenient representation for analysis of prime distribution, since it allows for application of a…
This study aims to publish a novel similarity metric to increase the speed of comparison operations. Also the new metric is suitable for distance-based operations among strings. Most of the simple calculation methods, such as string length…
We characterize the structure of the periods of a neuronal recurrence equation. Firstly, we give a characterization of k-chains in 0-1 periodic sequences. Secondly, we characterize the periods of all cycles of some neuronal recurrence…
String diagrams are an increasingly popular algebraic language for the analysis of graphical models of computations across different research fields. Whereas string diagrams have been thoroughly studied as semantic structures, much less…
String Quantum Gravity is motivated and introduced. Advances in the study of the classical and quantum string dynamics in curved spacetime are reported: 1-New Classes of Exact Multistring solutions in curved spacetimes. 2-Mass spectrum of…
Let $\Sigma$ be an alphabet. For two strings $X$, $Y$, and a constrained string $P$ over the alphabet $\Sigma$, the constrained longest common subsequence and substring problem for two strings $X$ and $Y$ with respect to $P$ is to find a…
We consider the longest common subsequence (LCS) problem with the restriction that the common subsequence is required to consist of at least $k$ length substrings. First, we show an $O(mn)$ time algorithm for the problem which gives a…
The net frequency (NF) of a string, of length $m$, in a text, of length $n$, is the number of occurrences of the string in the text with unique left and right extensions. Recently, Guo et al. [CPM 2024] showed that NF is combinatorially…
A correlation is a binary vector that encodes all possible positions of overlaps of two words, where an overlap for an ordered pair of words (u,v) occurs if a suffix of word u matches a prefix of word v. As multiple pairs can have the same…
Let A be any set of positive integers and n a positive integer. A composition of n with parts in A is an ordered collection of one or more elements in A whose sum is n. We derive generating functions for the number of compositions of n with…
String theory has not even come close to a complete formulation after half a century of intense research. On the other hand, a number of features of the theory suggest that the theory, once completed, may be a final theory. It is argued in…
A Meyniel obstruction is an odd cycle with at least five vertices and at most one chord. A graph is Meyniel if and only if it has no Meyniel obstruction as an induced subgraph. Here we give a O(n^2) algorithm that, for any graph, finds…
We consider in this paper the problem of computing the entropy of a braid. We recall its definition and construct, for each braid, a sequence of real numbers, whose limit is its entropy. We state one conjecture about the convergence speed,…
In this paper, we consider the satisfiability problem for string logic with equations, regular membership and Presburger constraints over length functions. The difficulty comes from multiple occurrences of string variables making…
