Given strings $P$ of length $m$ and $T$ of length $n$ over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, the string matching with $k$-mismatches problem is to find the positions of all the substrings in $T$ that are at Hamming distance at most $k$ from…

We introduce a new string matching problem called order-preserving matching on numeric strings where a pattern matches a text if the text contains a substring whose relative orders coincide with those of the pattern. Order-preserving…

The palindrome pattern matching (pal-matching) is a kind of generalized pattern matching, in which two strings $x$ and $y$ of same length are considered to match (pal-match) if they have the same palindromic structures, i.e., for any…

In this work, we consider the problem of pattern matching under the dynamic time warping (DTW) distance motivated by potential applications in the analysis of biological data produced by the third generation sequencing. To measure the DTW…

We show that $n$-bit integers can be factorized by independently running a quantum circuit with $\tilde{O}(n^{3/2})$ gates for $\sqrt{n}+4$ times, and then using polynomial-time classical post-processing. The correctness of the algorithm…

In this paper, we consider two versions of the Text Assembling problem. We are given a sequence of strings $s^1,\dots,s^n$ of total length $L$ that is a dictionary, and a string $t$ of length $m$ that is texts. The first version of the…

We introduce a new metric of match, called Cartesian tree matching, which means that two strings match if they have the same Cartesian trees. Based on Cartesian tree matching, we define single pattern matching for a text of length n and a…

String matching is a fundamental problem in computer science, with critical applications in text retrieval, bioinformatics, and data analysis. Among the numerous solutions that have emerged for this problem in recent decades,…

We present a quantum algorithm for sampling random spanning trees from a weighted graph in $\widetilde{O}(\sqrt{mn})$ time, where $n$ and $m$ denote the number of vertices and edges, respectively. Our algorithm has sublinear runtime for…

We present a continuous time quantum search algorithm analogous to Grover's. In particular, the optimal search time for this algorithm is proportional to $\sqrt{N}$, where $N$ is the database size. This search algorithm can be implemented…

The problem of approximate string matching is important in many different areas such as computational biology, text processing and pattern recognition. A great effort has been made to design efficient algorithms addressing several variants…

We study here the so called subsequence pattern matching also known as hidden pattern matching in which one searches for a given pattern $w$ of length $m$ as a subsequence in a random text of length $n$. The quantity of interest is the…

The problem of finding \emph{distance} between \emph{pattern} of length $m$ and \emph{text} of length $n$ is a typical way of generalizing pattern matching to incorporate dissimilarity score. For both Hamming and $L_1$ distances only a…

We consider the problem of preprocessing a text $T$ of length $n$ and a dictionary $\mathcal{D}$ in order to be able to efficiently answer queries $CountDistinct(i,j)$, that is, given $i$ and $j$ return the number of patterns from…

The $k$-mismatch problem consists in computing the Hamming distance between a pattern $P$ of length $m$ and every length-$m$ substring of a text $T$ of length $n$, if this distance is no more than $k$. In many real-world applications, any…

Longest common substring (LCS), longest palindrome substring (LPS), and Ulam distance (UL) are three fundamental string problems that can be classically solved in near linear time. In this work, we present sublinear time quantum algorithms…

Two recent lower bounds on the compressibility of repetitive sequences, $\delta \le \gamma$, have received much attention. It has been shown that a length-$n$ string $S$ over an alphabet of size $\sigma$ can be represented within the…

Given a pattern x of length m and a text y of length n, both over an ordered alphabet, the order-preserving pattern matching problem consists in finding all substrings of the text with the same relative order as the pattern. It is an…

We consider the problem of dictionary matching in a stream. Given a set of strings, known as a dictionary, and a stream of characters arriving one at a time, the task is to report each time some string in our dictionary occurs in the…

We present a new algorithm for subsequence matching in grammar compressed strings. Given a grammar of size $n$ compressing a string of size $N$ and a pattern string of size $m$ over an alphabet of size $\sigma$, our algorithm uses…
