Exact pattern matching in labeled graphs is the problem of searching paths of a graph $G=(V,E)$ that spell the same string as the given pattern $P[1..m]$. This basic problem can be found at the heart of more complex operations on variation…

In the String Matching in Labeled Graphs (SMLG) problem, we need to determine whether a pattern string appears on a given labeled graph or a given automaton. Under the Orthogonal Vectors hypothesis, the SMLG problem cannot be solved in…

We show how to chain maximal exact matches (MEMs) between a query string $Q$ and a labeled directed acyclic graph (DAG) $G=(V,E)$ to solve the longest common subsequence (LCS) problem between $Q$ and $G$. We obtain our result via a new…

For a graph $G$, let $Z(G,\lambda)$ be the partition function of the monomer-dimer system defined by $\sum_k m_k(G)\lambda^k$, where $m_k(G)$ is the number of matchings of size $k$ in $G$. We consider graphs of bounded degree and develop a…

Pattern matching queries on strings can be solved in linear time by Knuth-Morris-Pratt (KMP) algorithm. In 1973, Weiner introduced the suffix tree of a string [FOCS 1973] and showed that the seemingly more difficult problem of computing…

Recently, graph query is widely adopted for querying knowledge graphs. Given a query graph $G_Q$, the graph query finds subgraphs in a knowledge graph $G$ that exactly or approximately match $G_Q$. We face two challenges on graph query: (1)…

Suffix trees are an important data structure at the core of optimal solutions to many fundamental string problems, such as exact pattern matching, longest common substring, matching statistics, and longest repeated substring. Recent lines…

Semantic parsing is the task of producing a structured meaning representation for natural language utterances or questions. Recent research has pointed out that the commonly-used sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) semantic parsers struggle to…

A minimum path cover (MPC) of a directed acyclic graph (DAG) $G = (V,E)$ is a minimum-size set of paths that together cover all the vertices of the DAG. Computing an MPC is a basic polynomial problem, dating back to Dilworth's and…

We consider the following string matching problem on a node-labeled graph $G=(V,E)$: given a pattern string $P$, decide whether there exists a path in $G$ whose concatenation of node labels equals $P$. This is a basic primitive in various…

For the first time we provide a succinct pattern matching index for arbitrary graphs that can be built in polynomial time, which requires less space and answers queries more efficiently than the one in [SODA 2021]. We show that, given an…

Many problems that can be solved in quadratic time have bit-parallel speed-ups with factor $w$, where $w$ is the computer word size. A classic example is computing the edit distance of two strings of length $n$, which can be solved in…

Given strings $P$ and $Q$ the (exact) string matching problem is to find all positions of substrings in $Q$ matching $P$. The classical Knuth-Morris-Pratt algorithm [SIAM J. Comput., 1977] solves the string matching problem in linear time…

An L(2,1)-labeling of a graph $G$ is an assignment $f$ from the vertex set $V(G)$ to the set of nonnegative integers such that $|f(x)-f(y)|\ge 2$ if $x$ and $y$ are adjacent and $|f(x)-f(y)|\ge 1$ if $x$ and $y$ are at distance 2, for all…
