In the static retrieval problem, a data structure must answer retrieval queries mapping a set of $n$ keys in a universe $[U]$ to $v$-bit values. Information-theoretically, retrieval data structures can use as little as $nv$ bits of space.…

Let $G$ be an unlabeled planar and simple $n$-vertex graph. Unlabeled graphs are graphs where the label-information is either not given or lost during the construction of data-structures. We present a succinct encoding of $G$ that provides…
Given a string $S$ of $n$ integers in $[0,\sigma)$, a range minimum query RMQ$(i, j)$ asks for the index of the smallest integer in $S[i \dots j]$. It is well known that the problem can be solved with a succinct data structure of size $2n +…
In this work, we study the limits of compressed data structures, i.e., structures that support various queries on an input text $T\in\Sigma^n$ using space proportional to the size of $T$ in compressed form. Nearly all fundamental queries…

A 'degenerate string' is a sequence of subsets of some alphabet; it represents any string obtainable by selecting one character from each set from left to right. Recently, Alanko et al. generalized the rank-select problem to degenerate…
