In this paper, we build on recent results by Chauve et al. (2014) and Bahrani and Lumbroso (2017), which combined the split-decomposition, as exposed by Gioan and Paul, with analytic combinatorics, to produce new enumerative results on…
This work presents a discovery to advance the wisdom in a particular Succinct Data Structure: Wavelet Tree (Grossi, Gupta, and Vitter 2003). The discovery is first made by showing the feasibility of Reversed Indexes = Values: for integers…
We spot a hole in the area of succinct data structures for graph classes from a universe of size at most $n^n$. Very often, the input graph is labeled by the user in an arbitrary and easy-to-use way, and the data structure for the graph…
A cactus graph is a graph in which any two cycles are edge-disjoint. We present a constructive proof of the fact that any plane graph $G$ contains a cactus subgraph $C$ where $C$ contains at least a $\frac{1}{6}$ fraction of the triangular…
We provide a compact data structure for representing polyominoes that supports neighborhood and visibility queries. Neighborhood queries concern reporting adjacent cells to a given cell, and visibility queries determine whether a straight…
Recently a powerful class of rate-compatible serially concatenated convolutional codes (SCCCs) have been proposed based on minimizing analytical upper bounds on the error probability in the error floor region. Here this class of codes is…
The min-rank of a digraph was shown by Bar-Yossef et al. (2006) to represent the length of an optimal scalar linear solution of the corresponding instance of the Index Coding with Side Information (ICSI) problem. In this work, the graphs…
We consider the problem of compactly representing the Depth First Search (DFS) tree of a given undirected or directed graph having $n$ vertices and $m$ edges while supporting various DFS related queries efficiently in the RAM with…
We give a succinct data-structure that stores a tree with colors on the nodes. Given a node x and a color alpha, the structure finds the nearest node to x with color alpha. This results improves the $O(n\log n)$-bits structure of…
We study learning problems on correlated stochastic block models with two balanced communities. Our main result gives the first efficient algorithm for graph matching in this setting. In the most interesting regime where the average degree…
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…
Sequence representations supporting queries $access$, $select$ and $rank$ are at the core of many data structures. There is a considerable gap between the various upper bounds and the few lower bounds known for such representations, and how…
The rank and select operations over a string of length n from an alphabet of size $\sigma$ have been used widely in the design of succinct data structures. In many applications, the string itself need be maintained dynamically, allowing…
Finding a maximum clique in a given graph is one of the fundamental NP-hard problems. We compare two multi-core thread-parallel adaptations of a state-of-the-art branch and bound algorithm for the maximum clique problem, and provide a novel…
We introduce low-stretch trees to the visualization community with LSQT, our novel technique that uses quasi-trees for both layout and edge bundling. Our method offers strong computational speed and complexity guarantees by leveraging the…
The range-minimum query (RMQ) problem is a fundamental data structuring task with numerous applications. Despite the fact that succinct solutions with worst-case optimal $2n+o(n)$ bits of space and constant query time are known, it has been…
The rank problem in succinct data structures asks to preprocess an array A[1..n] of bits into a data structure using as close to n bits as possible, and answer queries of the form rank(k) = Sum_{i=1}^k A[i]. The problem has been intensely…
We give parallel algorithms for string diagrams represented as structured cospans of ACSets. Specifically, we give linear (sequential) and logarithmic (parallel) time algorithms for composition, tensor product, construction of diagrams from…
Structural decomposition methods offer powerful theoretical guarantees for join evaluation, yet they are rarely used in real-world query optimizers. A major reason is the difficulty of combining cost-based plan search and structure-based…
Bach et al. [1] recently presented an algorithm for constructing confluent drawings, by leveraging power graph decomposition to generate an auxiliary routing graph. We identify two issues with their method which we call the node split and…
