In this paper, we consider the problem of compressing a trie while supporting the powerful \emph{locate} queries: to return the pre-order identifiers of all nodes reached by a path labeled with a given query pattern. Our result builds on…

We consider the approximate pattern matching problem under the edit distance. Given a text $T$ of length $n$, a pattern $P$ of length $m$, and a threshold $k$, the task is to find the starting positions of all substrings of $T$ that can be…

A trie $\mathcal{T}$ is a rooted tree such that each edge is labeled by a single character from the alphabet, and the labels of out-going edges from the same node are mutually distinct. Given a trie $\mathcal{T}$ with $n$ edges, we show how…

Let two static sequences of strings $P$ and $S$, representing prefix and suffix conditions respectively, be given as input for preprocessing. For the query, let two positive integers $k_1$ and $k_2$ be given, as well as a string $T$ given…

Pattern matching is a fundamental process in almost every scientific domain. The problem involves finding the positions of a given pattern (usually of short length) in a reference stream of data (usually of large length). The matching can…

We introduce the strongly NP-complete pagination problem, an extension of BIN PACKING where packing together two items may make them occupy less volume than the sum of their individual sizes. To achieve this property, an item is defined as…

In an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$, we say $(A,B)$ is a pair of perfectly matched sets if $A$ and $B$ are disjoint subsets of $V$ and every vertex in $A$ (resp. $B$) has exactly one neighbor in $B$ (resp. $A$). The size of a pair of perfectly…

The classical pattern matching paradigm is that of seeking occurrences of one string - the pattern, in another - the text, where both strings are drawn from an alphabet set $\Sigma$. Assuming the text length is $n$ and the pattern length is…

We consider the problem of querying a string (or, a database) of length $N$ bits to determine all the locations where a substring (query) of length $M$ appears either exactly or is within a Hamming distance of $K$ from the query. We assume…

The Binary Jumbled String Matching problem is defined as: Given a string $s$ over $\{a,b\}$ of length $n$ and a query $(x,y)$, with $x,y$ non-negative integers, decide whether $s$ has a substring $t$ with exactly $x$ $a$'s and $y$ $b$'s.…

In this paper we describe compressed indexes that support pattern matching queries for strings with wildcards. For a constant size alphabet our data structure uses $O(n\log^{\varepsilon}n)$ bits for any $\varepsilon>0$ and reports all…

Position heaps are index structures of text strings used for the string matching problem. They are rooted trees whose edges and nodes are labeled and numbered, respectively. This paper is concerned with variants of the inverse problem of…

We study the NP-complete Minimum Shared Edges (MSE) problem. Given an undirected graph, a source and a sink vertex, and two integers p and k, the question is whether there are p paths in the graph connecting the source with the sink and…

In this paper, a fully compressed pattern matching problem is studied. The compression is represented by straight-line programs (SLPs), i.e. a context-free grammars generating exactly one string; the term fully means that both the pattern…

In the Multiple Allocation $k$-Hub Center (MA$k$HC), we are given a connected edge-weighted graph $G$, sets of clients $\mathcal{C}$ and hub locations $\mathcal{H}$, where ${V(G) = \mathcal{C} \cup \mathcal{H}}$, a set of demands…

We introduce the natural notion of a matching frame in a $2$-dimensional string. A matching frame in a $2$-dimensional $n\times m$ string $M$, is a rectangle such that the strings written on the horizontal sides of the rectangle are…

In this paper we describe two simple, fast, space-efficient algorithms for finding all matches of an indeterminate pattern $p = p[1..m]$ in an indeterminate string $x = x[1..n]$, where both $p$ and $x$ are defined on a "small" ordered…

Given an indeterminate string pattern $p$ and an indeterminate string text $t$, the problem of order-preserving pattern matching with character uncertainties ($\mu$OPPM) is to find all substrings of $t$ that satisfy one of the possible…

Given a graph, an $L(p,1)$-labeling of the graph is an assignment $f$ from the vertex set to the set of nonnegative integers such that for any pair of vertices $(u,v),|f (u) - f (v)| \ge p$ if $u$ and $v$ are adjacent, and $f(u) \neq f(v)$…

Given permutations $\sigma \in S_k$ and $\pi \in S_n$ with $k<n$, the \emph{pattern matching} problem is to decide whether $\pi$ matches $\sigma$ as an order-isomorphic subsequence. We give a linear-time algorithm in case both $\pi$ and…
