The suffix trees are fundamental data structures for various kinds of string processing. The suffix tree of a text string $T$ of length $n$ has $O(n)$ nodes and edges, and the string label of each edge is encoded by a pair of positions in…
The notions of synchronizing and partitioning sets are recently introduced variants of locally consistent parsings with great potential in problem-solving. In this paper we propose a deterministic algorithm that constructs for a given…
The Cover Suffix Tree (CST) of a string $T$ is the suffix tree of $T$ with additional explicit nodes corresponding to halves of square substrings of $T$. In the CST an explicit node corresponding to a substring $C$ of $T$ is annotated with…
Suffix trees and suffix arrays are two of the most widely used data structures for text indexing. Each uses linear space and can be constructed in linear time for polynomially sized alphabets. However, when it comes to answering queries…
We deal with the problem of maintaining the suffix tree indexing structure for a fully-online collection of multiple strings, where a new character can be prepended to any string in the collection at any time. The only previously known…
Suffix tree (and the closely related suffix array) are fundamental structures capturing all substrings of a given text essentially by storing all its suffixes in the lexicographical order. In some applications, we work with a subset of $b$…
The suffix tree is a very important data structure in string processing, but it suffers from a huge space consumption. In large-scale applications, compressed suffix trees (CSTs) are therefore used instead. A CST consists of three…
We show that the compressed suffix array and the compressed suffix tree of a string $T$ can be built in $O(n)$ deterministic time using $O(n\log\sigma)$ bits of space, where $n$ is the string length and $\sigma$ is the alphabet size.…
The linear-size suffix tries (LSTries) [Crochemore et al., TCS 2016] are a version of suffix trees in which the edge labels are single characters, yet are able to perform pattern matching queries in optimal time. Instead of explicitly…
Suffix trees are key and efficient data structure for solving string problems. A suffix tree is a compressed trie containing all the suffixes of a given text of length $n$ with a linear construction cost. In this work, we introduce an…
The suffix array and the suffix tree are the two most fundamental data structures for string processing. For a length-$n$ text, however, they use $\Theta(n \log n)$ bits of space, which is often too costly. To address this, Grossi and…
Two strings of equal length are said to parameterized match if there is a bijection that maps the characters of one string to those of the other string, so that two strings become identical. The parameterized pattern matching problem is,…
We show how to build several data structures of central importance to string processing, taking as input the Burrows-Wheeler transform (BWT) and using small extra working space. Let $n$ be the text length and $\sigma$ be the alphabet size.…
In this paper, we propose a new indexing structure for parameterized strings which we call PLSTs, by generalizing linear-size suffix tries for ordinary strings. Two parameterized strings are said to match if there is a bijection on the…
We consider an index data structure for similar strings. The generalized suffix tree can be a solution for this. The generalized suffix tree of two strings $A$ and $B$ is a compacted trie representing all suffixes in $A$ and $B$. It has…
We consider two closely related problems of text indexing in a sub-linear working space. The first problem is the Sparse Suffix Tree (SST) construction of a set of suffixes $B$ using only $O(|B|)$ words of space. The second problem is the…
Given two strings $T$ and $S$ and a set of strings $P$, for each string $p \in P$, consider the unique substrings of $T$ that have $p$ as their prefix and $S$ as their suffix. Two problems then come to mind; the first problem being the…
In the classic longest common substring (LCS) problem, we are given two strings $S$ and $T$, each of length at most $n$, over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, and we are asked to find a longest string occurring as a fragment of both $S$ and…
The suffix array is a fundamental data structure for many applications that involve string searching and data compression. Designing time/space-efficient suffix array construction algorithms has attracted significant attention and…
We show that the compressed suffix array and the compressed suffix tree for a string of length $n$ over an integer alphabet of size $\sigma\leq n$ can both be built in $O(n)$ (randomized) time using only $O(n\log\sigma)$ bits of working…
