Repeat finding in strings has important applications in subfields such as computational biology. Surprisingly, all prior work on repeat finding did not consider the constraint on the locality of repeats. In this paper, we propose and study…

We present an optimal data structure for submatrix maximum queries in n x n Monge matrices. Our result is a two-way reduction showing that the problem is equivalent to the classical predecessor problem in a universe of polynomial size. This…

In this work, we study the limits of compressed data structures, i.e., structures that support various queries on an input text $T\in\Sigma^n$ using space proportional to the size of $T$ in compressed form. Nearly all fundamental queries…

We study the internal dictionary matching (IDM) problem where a dictionary $\mathcal{D}$ containing $d$ substrings of a text $T$ is given, and each query concerns the occurrences of patterns in $\mathcal{D}$ in another substring of $T$. We…

The order-preserving model (op-model, in short) was introduced quite recently but has already attracted significant attention because of its applications in data analysis. We introduce several types of periods in this setting (op-periods).…

We consider several types of internal queries, that is, questions about fragments of a given text $T$ specified in constant space by their locations in $T$. Our main result is an optimal data structure for Internal Pattern Matching (IPM)…

The random access problem for compressed strings is to build a data structure that efficiently supports accessing the character in position $i$ of a string given in compressed form. Given a grammar of size $n$ compressing a string of size…

Let $S$ be a string of length $n$ over an alphabet $\Sigma$ and let $Q$ be a subset of $\Sigma$ of size $q \geq 2$. The 'co-occurrence problem' is to construct a compact data structure that supports the following query: given an integer $w$…

A longest repeat query on a string, motivated by its applications in many subfields including computational biology, asks for the longest repetitive substring(s) covering a particular string position (point query). In this paper, we extend…

We introduce succinct lossless representations of query results called covers. They are subsets of the query results that correspond to minimal edge covers in the hypergraphs of these results. We first study covers whose structures are…

We study the following problem: preprocess a set O of objects into a data structure that allows us to efficiently report all pairs of objects from O that intersect inside an axis-aligned query range Q. We present data structures of size…

In this work, we consider pattern matching variants in small space, that is, in the read-only setting, where we want to bound the space usage on top of storing the strings. Our main contribution is a space-time trade-off for the Internal…

The compressed indexing problem is to preprocess a string $S$ of length $n$ into a compressed representation that supports pattern matching queries. That is, given a string $P$ of length $m$ report all occurrences of $P$ in $S$. We present…

Geometric data structures have been extensively studied in the regime where the dimension is much smaller than the number of input points. But in many scenarios in Machine Learning, the dimension can be much higher than the number of points…

We present linear-space data structures for several frequency queries on trees, namely: path mode, path least frequent element, and path $\alpha$-minority queries. We present the first linear-space data structures, requiring $O(n…

Given a simple polygon $P$ with $n$ vertices, we consider the problem of constructing a data structure for visibility queries: for any query point $q \in P$, compute the visibility polygon of $q$ in $P$. To obtain $O(\log n + k)$ query…

We demonstrate that a modification of the classical index calculus algorithm can be used to factor integers. More generally, we reduce the factoring problem to finding an overdetermined system of multiplicative relations in any factor base…

Given a string $T$ of length $n$ over an alphabet $\Sigma\subset \{1,2,\ldots,n^{O(1)}\}$ of size $\sigma$, we are to preprocess $T$ so that given a range $[i,j]$, we can return a representation of a shortest string over $\Sigma$ that is…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ colored points. We develop efficient data structures that store $P$ and can answer chromatic $k$-nearest neighbor ($k$-NN) queries. Such a query consists of a query point $q$ and a number $k$, and asks for the color…

We devise a data structure that can answer shortest path queries for two query points in a polygonal domain $P$ on $n$ vertices. For any $\varepsilon > 0$, the space complexity of the data structure is $O(n^{10+\varepsilon })$ and queries…
