In this paper we revisit the classical regular expression matching problem, namely, given a regular expression $R$ and a string $Q$, decide if $Q$ matches one of the strings specified by $R$. Let $m$ and $n$ be the length of $R$ and $Q$,…
Recently, Armstrong, Guzm\'an, and Sing Long (2021), presented an optimal $O(n^2)$ time algorithm for strict circular seriation (called also the recognition of strict quasi-circular Robinson spaces). In this paper, we give a very simple…
We consider the problem of inserting a new item into an ordered list of N-1 items. The length of an algorithm is measured by the number of comparisons it makes between the new item and items already on the list. Classically, determining the…
This article introduces a new optimization method to improve mergesort's runtime complexity, when sorting sequences that have equal keys to $O(n log_2 k)$, where $k$ is the number of distinct keys in the sequence. When $k$ is constant, it…

Squares (fragments of the form $xx$, for some string $x$) are arguably the most natural type of repetition in strings. The basic algorithmic question concerning squares is to check if a given string of length $n$ is square-free, that is,…

We consider two combinatorial problems. The first we call "search with wildcards": given an unknown n-bit string x, and the ability to check whether any subset of the bits of x is equal to a provided query string, the goal is to output x.…
