We consider the dynamic range minimum problem on the ultra-wide word RAM model of computation. This model extends the classic $w$-bit word RAM model with special ultrawords of length $w^2$ bits that support standard arithmetic and boolean…
We present a data structure representing a dynamic set S of w-bit integers on a w-bit word RAM. With |S|=n and w > log n and space O(n), we support the following standard operations in O(log n / log w) time: - insert(x) sets S = S + {x}. -…
Traditional orthogonal range problems allow queries over a static set of points, each with some value. Dynamic variants allow points to be added or removed, one at a time. To support more powerful updates, we introduce the Grid Range class…

This paper explores the notion of approximate data structures, which return approximately correct answers to queries, but run faster than their exact counterparts. The paper describes approximate variants of the van Emde Boas data…
We consider a range of simply stated dynamic data structure problems on strings. An update changes one symbol in the input and a query asks us to compute some function of the pattern of length $m$ and a substring of a longer text. We give…

Given a set $S$ of $n$ points in the plane, we consider the problem of answering range selection queries on $S$: that is, given an arbitrary $x$-range $Q$ and an integer $k > 0$, return the $k$-th smallest $y$-coordinate from the set of…
In the orthogonal range reporting problem, we are to preprocess a set of $n$ points with integer coordinates on a $U \times U$ grid. The goal is to support reporting all $k$ points inside an axis-aligned query rectangle. This is one of the…

For a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane and a value $r > 0$, the unit-disk range reporting problem is to construct a data structure so that given any query disk of radius $r$, all points of $P$ in the disk can be reported efficiently. We…
A self-index is a compressed data structure that supports locate queries -- reporting all positions where a given pattern occurs in a string while maintaining the string in compressed form. While many self-indexes have been proposed,…
We revisit the range sampling problem: the input is a set of points where each point is associated with a real-valued weight. The goal is to store them in a structure such that given a query range and an integer $k$, we can extract $k$…
