We present a unified framework for accelerating edit-distance computation between two compressible strings using straight-line programs. For two strings of total length $N$ having straight-line program representations of total size $n$, we…

Given strings $P$ of length $m$ and $T$ of length $n$ over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, the string matching with $k$-mismatches problem is to find the positions of all the substrings in $T$ that are at Hamming distance at most $k$ from…

Let $\D = $$ \{d_1,d_2,...d_D\}$ be a given set of $D$ string documents of total length $n$, our task is to index $\D$, such that the $k$ most relevant documents for an online query pattern $P$ of length $p$ can be retrieved efficiently. We…

Undirected $st$-connectivity is important both for its applications in network problems, and for its theoretical connections with logspace complexity. Classically, a long line of work led to a time-space tradeoff of $T=\tilde{O}(n^2/S)$ for…

We present an algorithm that, given an index $t$, produces the $t$-th (lexicographically ordered) answer of an MSO query over a string. The algorithm requires linear-time preprocessing, and builds a data structure that answers each of these…

We consider the selection problem on a completely connected network of $n$ processors with no shared memory. Each processor initially holds a given numeric item of $b$ bits allowed to send a message of $\max ( b, \lg n )$ bits to another…

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…

We present an explicit and efficient algebraic construction of capacity-achieving list decodable codes with both constant alphabet and constant list sizes. More specifically, for any $R \in (0,1)$ and $\epsilon>0$, we give an algebraic…

N-fold integer programming is a fundamental problem with a variety of natural applications in operations research and statistics. Moreover, it is universal and provides a new, variable-dimension, parametrization of all of integer…

We show that if DTIME[2^O(n)] is not included in DSPACE[2^o(n)], then, for every set B in PSPACE/poly, all strings x in B of length n can be represented by a string compressed(x) of length at most log(|B^{=n}|)+O(log n), such that a…

We tackle the problems of computing the rightmost variant of the Lempel-Ziv factorizations in the online/sliding model. Previous best bounds for this problem are O(n log n) time with O(n) space, due to Amir et al. [IPL 2002] for the online…

Suppose that we are given a string $s$ of length $n$ over an alphabet $\{0,1,\ldots,n^{O(1)}\}$ and $\delta$ is the string complexity of $s$, a known compression measure. We describe an index on $s$ with $O(\delta\log\frac{n}{\delta})$…

The most fundamental problem considered in algorithms for text processing is pattern matching: given a pattern $p$ of length $m$ and a text $t$ of length $n$, does $p$ occur in $t$? Multiple versions of this basic question have been…

We consider the problem of designing a succinct data structure for {\it path graphs} (which are a proper subclass of chordal graphs and a proper superclass of interval graphs) on $n$ vertices while supporting degree, adjacency, and…

We introduce space-efficient plane-sweep algorithms for basic planar geometric problems. It is assumed that the input is in a read-only array of $n$ items and that the available workspace is $\Theta(s)$ bits, where $\lg n \leq s \leq n…

We present novel variants of fully online LCA (FOLCA), a fully online grammar compression that builds a straight line program (SLP) and directly encodes it into a succinct representation in an online manner. FOLCA enables a direct encoding…

Assume that an $N$-bit sequence $S$ of $k$ numbers encoded as Elias gamma codes is given as input. We present space-efficient algorithms for sorting, dense ranking and competitive ranking on $S$ in the word RAM model with word size…

The classical coding theorem in Kolmogorov complexity states that if an $n$-bit string $x$ is sampled with probability $\delta$ by an algorithm with prefix-free domain then K$(x) \leq \log(1/\delta) + O(1)$. In a recent work, Lu and…

The compressed indexing problem is to preprocess a string $S$ of length $n$ into a compressed representation that supports pattern matching queries. That is, given a string $P$ of length $m$ report all occurrences of $P$ in $S$. We present…
