The sort transform (ST) is a modification of the Burrows-Wheeler transform (BWT). Both transformations map an arbitrary word of length n to a pair consisting of a word of length n and an index between 1 and n. The BWT sorts all rotation…
Cartesian tree matching is a form of generalized pattern matching where a substring of the text matches with the pattern if they share the same Cartesian tree. This form of matching finds application for time series of stock prices and can…
The Burrows-Wheeler Transform (BWT) is often taught in undergraduate courses on algorithmic bioinformatics, because it underlies the FM-index and thus important tools such as Bowtie and BWA. Its admirers consider the BWT a thing of beauty…
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…
We use the, covariant and gauge-invariant, 1+1+2 formalism developed by Clarkson and Barrett, and develop new techniques, to decouple electromagnetic (EM) perturbations on arbitrary locally rotationally symmetric (LRS) space-times.…
The longest common prefix array is a very advantageous data structure that, combined with the suffix array and the Burrows-Wheeler transform, allows to efficiently compute some combinatorial properties of a string useful in several…
Given a weighted bipartite graph $G = (L, R, E, w)$, the maximum weight matching (MWM) problem seeks to find a matching $M \subseteq E$ that maximizes the total weight $\sum_{e \in M} w(e)$. This paper presents a novel algorithm with a time…
Suppose we are asked to index a text $T [0..n - 1]$ such that, given a pattern $P [0..m - 1]$, we can quickly report the maximal substrings of $P$ that each occur in $T$ at least $k$ times. We first show how we can add $O (r \log n)$ bits…
We present an algorithm for building the extended BWT (eBWT) of a string collection from its grammar-compressed representation. Our technique exploits the string repetitions captured by the grammar to boost the computation of the eBWT.…
It was recently proved that any SLP generating a given string $w$ can be transformed in linear time into an equivalent balanced SLP of the same asymptotic size. We show that this result also holds for RLSLPs, which are SLPs extended with…
Given a string $T$ on an alphabet of size $\sigma$, we describe a bidirectional Burrows-Wheeler index that takes $O(|T|\log{\sigma})$ bits of space, and that supports the addition \emph{and removal} of one character, on the left or right…
We present an algorithm for computing a maximum agreement subtree of two unrooted evolutionary trees. It takes O(n^{1.5} log n) time for trees with unbounded degrees, matching the best known time complexity for the rooted case. Our…
The Positional Burrows-Wheeler Transform (PBWT) is a fundamental data structure for the efficient representation and analysis of large-scale haplotype panels. For a panel of $h$ sequences $\{S_1, \dots, S_h\}$ over $m$ sites, a key…
An extended regular expression $R$ specifies a set of strings formed by characters from an alphabet combined with concatenation, union, intersection, complement, and star operators. Given an extended regular expression $R$ and a string $Q$,…
The move structure represents a permutation $\pi$ of $[0,n)$ as a covering set of $O(r)$ disjoint intervals (contiguous subsets of $[0,n)$), where $r$ is the minimum number of intervals whose values permute together. Formally, $r = 1 +…
The class of regular transformations has several equivalent characterizations such as functional MSO transductions, deterministic two-way transducers, streaming string transducers, as well as regular transducer expressions (RTE). For…
Bearing data compression is vital to manage the large volumes of data generated during condition monitoring. In this paper, a novel asymmetrical autoencoder with a lifting wavelet transform (LWT) layer is developed to compress bearing…
We survey the different methods used for extending the BWT to collections of strings, following largely [Cenzato and Lipt\'ak, CPM 2022, Bioinformatics 2024]. We analyze the specific aspects and combinatorial properties of the resulting BWT…
Waveform relaxation (WR) methods are based on partitioning large circuits into sub-circuits which then are solved separately for multiple time steps in so-called time windows, and an iteration is used to converge to the global circuit…
When building Burrows-Wheeler Transforms (BWTs) of truly huge datasets, prefix-free parsing (PFP) can use an unreasonable amount of memory. In this paper we show how if a dataset can be broken down into small datasets that are not very…
