Given a string $T$, it is known that its suffix tree can be represented using the compact directed acyclic word graph (CDAWG) with $e_T$ arcs, taking overall $O(e_T+e_{{\overline{T}}})$ words of space, where ${\overline{T}}$ is the reverse…
The compact directed acyclic word graph (CDAWG) is the minimal compact automaton that recognizes all the suffixes of a string. Classically the CDAWG has been implemented as an index of the string it recognizes, requiring $o(n)$ space for a…
The compact directed acyclic word graph (CDAWG) of a string $T$ is an index occupying $O(\mathsf{e})$ space, where $\mathsf{e}$ is the number of right extensions of maximal repeats in $T$. For highly repetitive datasets, the measure…
In this paper, we propose a novel approach to combine \emph{compact directed acyclic word graphs} (CDAWGs) and grammar-based compression. This leads us to an efficient self-index, called Linear-size CDAWGs (L-CDAWGs), which can be…
The directed acyclic word graph (DAWG) of a string $y$ of length $n$ is the smallest (partial) DFA which recognizes all suffixes of $y$ with only $O(n)$ nodes and edges. In this paper, we show how to construct the DAWG for the input string…
In this paper, we present the first study of the computational complexity of converting an automata-based text index structure, called the Compact Directed Acyclic Word Graph (CDAWG), of size $e$ for a text $T$ of length $n$ into other text…
Compact directed acyclic word graphs (CDAWGs) [Blumer et al. 1987] are a fundamental data structure on strings with applications in text pattern searching, data compression, and pattern discovery. Intuitively, the CDAWG of a string $T$ is…

We consider construction of the suffix tree and the directed acyclic word graph (DAWG) indexing data structures for a collection $\mathcal{T}$ of texts, where a new symbol may be appended to any text in $\mathcal{T} = \{T_1, \ldots, T_K\}$,…
A string $w$ is said to be a minimal absent word (MAW) for a string $S$ if $w$ does not occur in $S$ and any proper substring of $w$ occurs in $S$. We focus on non-trivial MAWs which are of length at least 2. Finding such non-trivial MAWs…
We present a new on-line algorithm for computing the Lempel-Ziv factorization of a string that runs in $O(N\log N)$ time and uses only $O(N\log\sigma)$ bits of working space, where $N$ is the length of the string and $\sigma$ is the size of…
In highly repetitive strings, like collections of genomes from the same species, distinct measures of repetition all grow sublinearly in the length of the text, and indexes targeted to such strings typically depend only on one of these…
A classic data structure problem is to preprocess a string T of length $n$ so that, given a query $q$, we can quickly find all substrings of T with Hamming distance at most $k$ from the query string. Variants of this problem have seen…
Detecting all the strings that occur in a text more frequently or less frequently than expected according to an IID or a Markov model is a basic problem in string mining, yet current algorithms are based on data structures that are either…
A labeled tree (or a trie) is a natural generalization of a string, which can also be seen as a compact representation of a set of strings. This paper considers the labeled tree indexing problem, and provides a number of new results on…
Motivated by the imminent growth of massive, highly redundant genomic databases, we study the problem of compressing a string database while simultaneously supporting fast random access, substring extraction and pattern matching to the…
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 texts…
Document listing on string collections is the task of finding all documents where a pattern appears. It is regarded as the most fundamental document retrieval problem, and is useful in various applications. Many of the fastest-growing…
An optimal index solving top-k document retrieval [Navarro and Nekrich, SODA12] takes O(m + k) time for a pattern of length m, but its space is at least 80n bytes for a collection of n symbols. We reduce it to 1.5n to 3n bytes, with…
