Natural language text corpora are often available as sets of syntactically parsed trees. A wide range of expressive tree queries are possible over such parsed trees that open a new avenue in searching over natural language text. They not…
Dynamic trees, originally described by Sleator and Tarjan, have been studied deeply for non persistent structures providing $\mathcal{O}(\log n)$ time for update and lookup operations as shown in theory and practice by Werneck. However,…
We show how a few modifications to the red-black trees allow for $O(1)$ worst-case update time (once the position of the inserted or deleted element is known). The resulting structure is based on relaxing some of the properties of the…
We introduce a new dynamic data structure for maintaining the strongly connected components (SCCs) of a directed graph (digraph) under edge deletions, so as to answer a rich repertoire of connectivity queries. Our main technical…
We consider preprocessing a set $S$ of $n$ points in convex position in the plane into a data structure supporting queries of the following form: given a point $q$ and a directed line $\ell$ in the plane, report the point of $S$ that is…
The tremendous expanse of search engines, dictionary and thesaurus storage, and other text mining applications, combined with the popularity of readily available scanning devices and optical character recognition tools, has necessitated…
We use a novel decomposition to create succinct data structures -- supporting a wide range of operations on static trees in constant time -- for a variety tree classes, extending results of Munro, Nicholson, Benkner, and Wild. Motivated by…
We introduce data structures answering queries concerning the occurrences of patterns from a given dictionary $\mathcal{D}$ in fragments of a given string $T$ of length $n$. The dictionary is internal in the sense that each pattern in…
The binary indexed tree, or Fenwick tree, is a data structure that can efficiently update values and calculate prefix sums in an array. It allows both of these operations to be performed in $O(\log_2 N)$ time. Here we present a novel data…
As data volumes continue to grow rapidly, traditional search algorithms, like the red-black tree and B+ Tree, face increasing challenges in performance, especially in big data scenarios with intensive storage access. This paper presents the…
We give a new data structure for the fully-dynamic minimum spanning forest problem in simple graphs. Edge updates are supported in $O(\log^4n/\log\log n)$ amortized time per operation, improving the $O(\log^4n)$ amortized bound of Holm et…
We present a data structure that supports three-dimensional range reporting queries in $O(\log \log U + (\log \log n)^3+k)$ time and uses $O(n\log^{1+\eps} n)$ space, where $U$ is the size of the universe, $k$ is the number of points in the…
We present a deterministic fully-dynamic data structure for maintaining information about the cut-vertices in a graph; i.e. the vertices whose removal would disconnect the graph. Our data structure supports insertion and deletion of edges,…
This paper proposes an efficient data structure, ikd-Tree, for dynamic space partition. The ikd-Tree incrementally updates a k-d tree with new coming points only, leading to much lower computation time than existing static k-d trees.…
The dynamic trees problem is to maintain a tree under edge updates while supporting queries like connectivity queries or path queries. Despite the first data structure for this fundamental problem -- the link-cut tree -- being invented 40…
Recently, Farhi, Goldstone, and Gutmann gave a quantum algorithm for evaluating NAND trees that runs in time O(sqrt(N log N)) in the Hamiltonian query model. In this note, we point out that their algorithm can be converted into an algorithm…
In this paper, we have developed a fully-dynamic algorithm for maintaining cardinality of maximum-matching in a tree using the construction of top-trees. The time complexities are as follows: 1. Initialization Time: $O(n(log(n)))$ to build…
We call a graph $G$ separable if a balanced separator can be computed for $G$ of size $O(n^c)$ with $c<1$. Many real-world graphs are separable such as graphs of bounded genus, graphs of constant treewidth, and graphs excluding a fixed…
We introduce exponential search trees as a novel technique for converting static polynomial space search structures for ordered sets into fully-dynamic linear space data structures. This leads to an optimal bound of O(sqrt(log n/loglog n))…
Given an array of size $n$ from a total order, we consider the problem of constructing a data structure that supports various queries (range minimum/maximum queries with their variants and next/previous larger/smaller queries) efficiently.…
