We study the problem of indexing text with wildcard positions, motivated by the challenge of aligning sequencing data to large genomes that contain millions of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)---positions known to differ between…

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the surface of a convex polyhedron with $n$ vertices. We consider the two-point shortest path query problem for $\mathcal{P}$: Constructing a data structure so that given any two query points $s$ and $t$ on…

Let $S$ be a set of $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^2$. Our goal is to preprocess $S$ to efficiently compute the smallest enclosing disk of the points in $S$ that lie inside an axis-aligned query rectangle. Previous data structures for this…

Given a set $P$ of $n$ points in the plane, we consider the problem of computing the number of points of $P$ in a query unit disk (i.e., all query disks have the same radius). We show that the main techniques for simplex range searching in…

Let $\mathcal{D}$ be a collection of $D$ documents, which are strings over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, of total length $n$. We describe a data structure that uses linear space and and reports $k$ most relevant documents that contain a…

Let S be a finite, ordered alphabet, and let x = x_1 x_2 ... x_n be a string over S. A "secondary index" for x answers alphabet range queries of the form: Given a range [a_l,a_r] over S, return the set I_{[a_l;a_r]} = {i |x_i \in [a_l;…

In the semialgebraic range searching problem, we are to preprocess $n$ points in $\mathbb{R}^d$ s.t. for any query range from a family of constant complexity semialgebraic sets, all the points intersecting the range can be reported or…

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…

We study the problem of $2$-dimensional orthogonal range counting with additive error. Given a set $P$ of $n$ points drawn from an $n\times n$ grid and an error parameter $\eps$, the goal is to build a data structure, such that for any…

We consider a variant of two-point Euclidean shortest path query problem: given a polygonal domain, build a data structure for two-point shortest path query, provided that query points always lie on the boundary of the domain. As a main…

Modern tracking technology has made the collection of large numbers of densely sampled trajectories of moving objects widely available. We consider a fundamental problem encountered when analysing such data: Given $n$ polygonal curves $S$…

Recently, motivated by the rapid increase of the data size in various applications, Monemizadeh [APPROX'23] and Driemel, Monemizadeh, Oh, Staals, and Woodruff [SoCG'25] studied geometric problems in the setting where the only access to the…

We propose new succinct representations of ordinal trees, which have been studied extensively. It is known that any $n$-node static tree can be represented in $2n + o(n)$ bits and a number of operations on the tree can be supported in…

Many signal processing problems can be solved by maximizing the fitness of a segmented model over all possible partitions of the data interval. This letter describes a simple but powerful algorithm that searches the exponentially large…

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…

We study the $c$-approximate near neighbor problem under the continuous Fr\'echet distance: Given a set of $n$ polygonal curves with $m$ vertices, a radius $\delta > 0$, and a parameter $k \leq m$, we want to preprocess the curves into a…

In this paper, we study the problem of computing the diameter of a set of $n$ points in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space for a fixed dimension $d$, and propose a new $(1+\varepsilon)$-approximation algorithm with $O(n+ 1/\varepsilon^{d-1})$…

We consider several problems that involve lines in three dimensions, and present improved algorithms for solving them. The problems include (i) ray shooting amid triangles in $R^3$, (ii) reporting intersections between query lines…

Suffix arrays and LCP arrays are one of the most fundamental data structures widely used for various kinds of string processing. We consider two problems for a read-only string of length $N$ over an integer alphabet $[1, \dots, \sigma]$ for…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane. In this paper we study a new variant of the circular separability problem in which a point set $P$ is preprocessed so that one can quickly answer queries of the following form: Given a geometric…
