A closed word (a.k.a. periodic-like word or complete first return) is a word whose longest border does not have internal occurrences, or, equivalently, whose longest repeated prefix is not right special. We investigate the structure of…
A word is called closed if it has a prefix which is also its suffix and there is no internal occurrences of this prefix in the word. In this paper we study words that are rich in closed factors, i.e., which contain the maximal possible…
A closed string $u$ is either of length one or contains a border that occurs only as a prefix and as a suffix in $u$ and nowhere else within $u$. In this paper, we present fast $\mathcal{O}(n\log n)$ time algorithms to compute all…
A finite word is closed if it contains a factor that occurs both as a prefix and as a suffix but does not have internal occurrences, otherwise it is open. We are interested in the {\it oc-sequence} of a word, which is the binary sequence…
Trapezoidal words are words having at most $n+1$ distinct factors of length $n$ for every $n\ge 0$. They therefore encompass finite Sturmian words. We give combinatorial characterizations of trapezoidal words and exhibit a formula for their…
A border of a string is a non-empty proper prefix of the string that is also a suffix. A string is unbordered if it has no border. The longest unbordered factor is a fundamental notion in stringology, closely related to string periodicity.…
Trapezoidal words are finite words having at most n+1 distinct factors of length n, for every n>=0. They encompass finite Sturmian words. We distinguish trapezoidal words into two disjoint subsets: open and closed trapezoidal words. A…
The net frequency (NF) of a string, of length $m$, in a text, of length $n$, is the number of occurrences of the string in the text with unique left and right extensions. Recently, Guo et al. [CPM 2024] showed that NF is combinatorially…
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…
A finite word $u$ is called closed if its longest repeated prefix has exactly two occurrences in $u,$ once as a prefix and once as a suffix. We study the function $f_x^c:\mathbb N \rightarrow \mathbb N$ which counts the number of closed…
A border of a string is a non-empty prefix of the string that is also a suffix of the string, and a string is unbordered if it has no border other than itself. Loptev, Kucherov, and Starikovskaya [CPM 2015] conjectured the following: If we…
Detecting all the strings that occur in a text more frequently or less frequently than expected according to an IID or a Markov model is a basic problem in string mining, yet current algorithms are based on data structures that are either…
Given two strings $T$ and $S$ and a set of strings $P$, for each string $p \in P$, consider the unique substrings of $T$ that have $p$ as their prefix and $S$ as their suffix. Two problems then come to mind; the first problem being the…
A word is closed if it contains a proper factor that occurs both as a prefix and as a suffix but does not have internal occurrences, otherwise it is open. We deal with the sequence of open and closed prefixes of Sturmian words and prove…
An occurrence of a repeated substring $u$ in a string $S$ is called a net occurrence if extending the occurrence to the left or to the right decreases the number of occurrences to 1. The net frequency (NF) of a repeated substring $u$ in a…
Online string matching is a computational problem involving the search for patterns or substrings in a large text dataset, with the pattern and text being processed sequentially, without prior access to the entire text. Its relevance stems…
The palindromic tree (a.k.a. eertree) for a string $S$ of length $n$ is a tree-like data structure that represents the set of all distinct palindromic substrings of $S$, using $O(n)$ space [Rubinchik and Shur, 2018]. It is known that, when…
We show that the compressed suffix array and the compressed suffix tree of a string $T$ can be built in $O(n)$ deterministic time using $O(n\log\sigma)$ bits of space, where $n$ is the string length and $\sigma$ is the alphabet size.…
Much research in stringology focuses on structures that can, in a way, ``grasp'' repeats (substrings that occur multiple times) as, for example, the so-called runs, a.k.a. maximal repetitions, compactly describe all tandem repeats. In this…
A language L is prefix-closed if, whenever a word w is in L, then every prefix of w is also in L. We define suffix-, factor-, and subword-closed languages in the same way, where by subword we mean subsequence. We study the quotient…
