Compact Representation of Maximal Palindromes

Authors: Takuya Mieno

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 369, 37th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2026)


Abstract
Palindromes are strings that read the same forward and backward. The computation of palindromic structures within strings is a fundamental problem in string algorithms, being motivated by potential applications in formal language theory and bioinformatics. Although the number of palindromic factors in a string of length n can be quadratic, they can be implicitly represented in O(n log n) bits of space by storing the lengths of all maximal palindromes in an integer array, which can be computed in O(n) time [Manacher, 1975]. In this paper, we propose a novel O(n)-bit representation of all maximal palindromes in a string, which enables O(1)-time retrieval of the length of the maximal palindrome centered at any given position. The data structure can be constructed in O(n) time from the input string of length n. Since Manacher’s algorithm and the notion of maximal palindromes are widely utilized for solving numerous problems involving palindromic structures, our compact representation will accelerate the development of more space-efficient solutions to such problems. Indeed, as the first application of our compact representation of maximal palindromes, we present a data structure of size O(n) bits that can compute the longest palindrome appearing in any given factor of a string of length n in O(log n) time.

Approximate Cartesian Tree Matching with Substitutions

Authors: Panagiotis Charalampopoulos, Jonas Ellert, and Manal Mohamed

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 364, 43rd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2026)


Abstract
The Cartesian tree of a sequence captures the relative order of the sequence’s elements. In recent years, Cartesian tree matching has attracted considerable attention, particularly due to its applications in time series analysis. Consider a text T of length n and a pattern P of length m. In the exact Cartesian tree matching problem, the task is to find all length-m fragments of T whose Cartesian tree coincides with the Cartesian tree CT(P) of the pattern. Although the exact version of the problem can be solved in linear time [Park et al., TCS 2020], it remains rather restrictive; for example, it is not robust to outliers in the pattern. To overcome this limitation, we consider the approximate setting, where the goal is to identify all fragments of T that are close to some string whose Cartesian tree matches CT(P). In this work, we quantify closeness via the widely used Hamming distance metric. For a given integer parameter k > 0, we present an algorithm that computes all fragments of T that are at Hamming distance at most k from a string whose Cartesian tree matches CT(P). Our algorithm runs in time 𝒪(n √m ⋅ k^{2.5}) for k ≤ m^{1/5} and in time 𝒪(nk⁵) for k ≥ m^{1/5}, thereby improving upon the state-of-the-art 𝒪(nmk)-time algorithm of Kim and Han [TCS 2025] in the regime k = o(m^{1/4}). On the way to our solution, we develop a toolbox of independent interest. First, we introduce a new notion of periodicity in Cartesian trees. Then, we lift multiple well-known combinatorial and algorithmic results for string matching and periodicity in strings to Cartesian tree matching and periodicity in Cartesian trees.

On the Complexity of Language Membership for Probabilistic Words

Authors: Antoine Amarilli, Mikaël Monet, Paul Raphaël, and Sylvain Salvati

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 364, 43rd International Symposium on Theoretical Aspects of Computer Science (STACS 2026)


Abstract
We study the membership problem to context-free languages L (CFLs) on probabilistic words, that specify for each position a probability distribution on the letters (assuming independence across positions). Our task is to compute, given a probabilistic word, what is the probability that a word drawn according to the distribution belongs to L. This problem generalizes the problem of counting how many words of length n belong to L, or of counting how many completions of a partial word belong to L. We show that this problem is in polynomial time for unambiguous context-free languages (uCFLs), but can be #P-hard already for unions of two linear uCFLs. More generally, we show that the problem is in polynomial time for so-called poly-slicewise-unambiguous languages, where given a length n we can tractably compute an uCFL for the words of length n in the language. This class includes some inherently ambiguous languages, and implies the tractability of bounded CFLs and of languages recognized by unambiguous polynomial-time counter automata; but we show that the problem can be #P-hard for nondeterministic counter automata, even for Parikh automata with a single counter. We then introduce classes of circuits from knowledge compilation which we use for tractable counting, and show that this covers the tractability of poly-slicewise-unambiguous languages and of some CFLs that are not poly-slicewise-unambiguous. Extending these circuits with negation further allows us to show tractability for the language of primitive words, and for the language of concatenations of two palindromes. We finally show the conditional undecidability of the meta-problem that asks, given a CFG, whether the probabilistic membership problem for that CFG is tractable or #P-hard.

The Bend Number of Cocomparability Graphs

Authors: Todor Antić, Vit Jelínek, Martin Pergel, Felix Schröder, Peter Stumpf, and Pavel Valtr

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 357, 33rd International Symposium on Graph Drawing and Network Visualization (GD 2025)


Abstract
We introduce a new complexity measure for cocomparability graphs of posets or in other words, intersection graphs of piecewise linear functions, the bend number. We prove that cocomparability graphs of bounded bend number are not too plentiful and give two hierarchies of classes of cocomparability graphs, depending on whether the piecewise linear functions are restricted to slopes of ±1 (diagonal case) or not (general case). These hierarchies give a gradation between permutation graphs and cocomparability graphs.

Improved Hardness-Of-Approximation for Token-Swapping

Authors: Sam Hiken and Nicole Wein

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 351, 33rd Annual European Symposium on Algorithms (ESA 2025)


Abstract
We study the token swapping problem, in which we are given a graph with an initial assignment of one distinct token to each vertex, and a final desired assignment (again with one token per vertex). The goal is to find the minimum length sequence of swaps of adjacent tokens required to get from the initial to the final assignment. The token swapping problem is known to be NP-complete. It is also known to have a polynomial-time 4-approximation algorithm. From the hardness-of-approximation side, it is known to be NP-hard to approximate with a ratio better than 1001/1000. Our main result is an improvement of the approximation ratio of the lower bound: We show that it is NP-hard to approximate with ratio better than 14/13. We then turn our attention to the 0/1-weighted version, in which every token has a weight of either 0 or 1, and the cost of a swap is the sum of the weights of the two participating tokens. Unlike standard token swapping, no constant-factor approximation is known for this version, and we provide an explanation. We prove that 0/1-weighted token swapping is NP-hard to approximate with ratio better than (1-ε) ln(n) for any constant ε > 0. Lastly, we prove two barrier results for the standard (unweighted) token swapping problem. We show that one cannot beat the current best known approximation ratio of 4 using a large class of algorithms which includes all known algorithms, nor can one beat it using a common analysis framework.

A Survey of the Bijective Burrows-Wheeler Transform

Authors: Hideo Bannai, Dominik Köppl, and Zsuzsanna Lipták

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 131, The Expanding World of Compressed Data: A Festschrift for Giovanni Manzini's 60th Birthday (2025)


Abstract
The Bijective BWT (BBWT), conceived by Scott in 2007, later summarized in a preprint by Gil and Scott in 2009 (arXiv 2012), is a variant of the Burrows-Wheeler Transform which is bijective: every string is the BBWT of some string. Indeed, the BBWT of a string is the extended BWT [Mantaci et al., 2007] of the factors of its Lyndon factorization. The BBWT has been receiving increasing interest in recent years. In this paper, we survey existing research on the BBWT, starting with its history and motivation. We then present algorithmic topics including construction algorithms with various complexities and an index on top of the BBWT for pattern matching. We subsequently address some properties of the BBWT as a compressor, discussing robustness to operations such as reversal, edits, rotation, as well as compression power. We close with listing other bijective variants of the BWT and open problems concerning the BBWT.

Extending the Burrows-Wheeler Transform for Cartesian Tree Matching and Constructing It

Authors: Eric M. Osterkamp and Dominik Köppl

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 331, 36th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2025)


Abstract
Cartesian tree matching is a form of generalized pattern matching where a substring of the text matches with the pattern if they share the same Cartesian tree. This form of matching finds application for time series of stock prices and can be of interest for melody matching between musical scores. For the indexing problem, the state-of-the-art data structure is a Burrows-Wheeler transform based solution due to [Kim and Cho, CPM'21], which uses nearly succinct space and can count the number of substrings that Cartesian tree match with a pattern in time linear in the pattern length. The authors address the construction of their data structure with a straight-forward solution that, however, requires pointer-based data structures, resulting in O(n lg n) bits of space, where n is the text length [Kim and Cho, CPM'21, Section A.4]. We address this bottleneck by a construction that requires O(n lg σ) bits of space and has a time complexity of O(n (lg σ lg n)/(lg lg n)), where σ is alphabet size. Additionally, we can extend this index for indexing multiple circular texts in the spirit of the extended Burrows-Wheeler transform without sacrificing the time and space complexities. We present this index in a dynamic variant, where we pay a logarithmic slowdown and need space linear in the input texts in bits for the extra functionality that we can incrementally add texts. Our extended setting is of interest for finding repetitive motifs common in the aforementioned applications, independent of offsets and scaling.

Pattern Matching on Run-Length Grammar-Compressed Strings in Linear Time

Authors: Yuto Iguchi, Ryo Yoshinaka, and Ayumi Shinohara

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 331, 36th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2025)


Abstract
Run-length straight-line programs (RLSLPs) are a technique for grammar-based compression, allowing any string to be represented with optimal space for δ, the substring complexity of the string. We address the compressed pattern matching problem for RLSLPs: Given a compressed text in RLSLP format and an uncompressed pattern, determine if the pattern appears in the text. This paper proposes an algorithm that solves this problem in linear time with respect to the size of the grammar and the length of the pattern.

Breaking a Barrier in Constructing Compact Indexes for Parameterized Pattern Matching

Authors: Kento Iseri, Tomohiro I, Diptarama Hendrian, Dominik Köppl, Ryo Yoshinaka, and Ayumi Shinohara

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 297, 51st International Colloquium on Automata, Languages, and Programming (ICALP 2024)


Abstract
A parameterized string (p-string) is a string over an alphabet (Σ_s ∪ Σ_p), where Σ_s and Σ_p are disjoint alphabets for static symbols (s-symbols) and for parameter symbols (p-symbols), respectively. Two p-strings x and y are said to parameterized match (p-match) if and only if x can be transformed into y by applying a bijection on Σ_p to every occurrence of p-symbols in x. The indexing problem for p-matching is to preprocess a p-string T of length n so that we can efficiently find the occurrences of substrings of T that p-match with a given pattern. Let σ_s and respectively σ_p be the numbers of distinct s-symbols and p-symbols that appear in T and σ = σ_s + σ_p. Extending the Burrows-Wheeler Transform (BWT) based index for exact string pattern matching, Ganguly et al. [SODA 2017] proposed parameterized BWTs (pBWTs) to design the first compact index for p-matching, and posed an open problem on how to construct the pBWT-based index in compact space, i.e., in O(n lg |Σ_s ∪ Σ_p|) bits of space. Hashimoto et al. [SPIRE 2022] showed how to construct the pBWT for T, under the assumption that Σ_s ∪ Σ_p = [0..O(σ)], in O(n lg σ) bits of space and O(n (σ_p lg n)/(lg lg n)) time in an online manner while reading the symbols of T from right to left. In this paper, we refine Hashimoto et al.’s algorithm to work in O(n lg σ) bits of space and O(n (lg σ_p lg n)/(lg lg n)) time in a more general assumption that Σ_s ∪ Σ_p = [0..n^{O(1)}]. Our result has an immediate application to constructing parameterized suffix arrays in O(n (lg σ_p lg n)/(lg lg n)) time and O(n lg σ) bits of working space. We also show that our data structure can support backward search, a core procedure of BWT-based indexes, at any stage of the online construction, making it the first compact index for p-matching that can be constructed in compact space and even in an online manner.

Algorithms for Galois Words: Detection, Factorization, and Rotation

Authors: Diptarama Hendrian, Dominik Köppl, Ryo Yoshinaka, and Ayumi Shinohara

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 296, 35th Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2024)


Abstract
Lyndon words are extensively studied in combinatorics on words - they play a crucial role on upper bounding the number of runs a word can have [Bannai+, SIAM J. Comput.'17]. We can determine Lyndon words, factorize a word into Lyndon words in lexicographically non-increasing order, and find the Lyndon rotation of a word, all in linear time within constant additional working space. A recent research interest emerged from the question of what happens when we change the lexicographic order, which is at the heart of the definition of Lyndon words. In particular, the alternating order, where the order of all odd positions becomes reversed, has been recently proposed. While a Lyndon word is, among all its cyclic rotations, the smallest one with respect to the lexicographic order, a Galois word exhibits the same property by exchanging the lexicographic order with the alternating order. Unfortunately, this exchange has a large impact on the properties Galois words exhibit, which makes it a nontrivial task to translate results from Lyndon words to Galois words. Up until now, it has only been conjectured that linear-time algorithms with constant additional working space in the spirit of Duval’s algorithm are possible for computing the Galois factorization or the Galois rotation. Here, we affirm this conjecture as follows. Given a word T of length n, we can determine whether T is a Galois word, in O(n) time with constant additional working space. Within the same complexities, we can also determine the Galois rotation of T, and compute the Galois factorization of T online. The last result settles Open Problem 1 in [Dolce et al., TCS 2019] for Galois words.

Parallel Algorithm for Pattern Matching Problems Under Substring Consistent Equivalence Relations

Authors: Davaajav Jargalsaikhan, Diptarama Hendrian, Ryo Yoshinaka, and Ayumi Shinohara

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 223, 33rd Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2022)


Abstract
Given a text and a pattern over an alphabet, the pattern matching problem searches for all occurrences of the pattern in the text. An equivalence relation ≈ is a substring consistent equivalence relation (SCER), if for two strings X and Y, X ≈ Y implies |X| = |Y| and X[i:j] ≈ Y[i:j] for all 1 ≤ i ≤ j ≤ |X|. In this paper, we propose an efficient parallel algorithm for pattern matching under any SCER using the "duel-and-sweep" paradigm. For a pattern of length m and a text of length n, our algorithm runs in O(ξ_m^t log³ m) time and O(ξ_m^w ⋅ n log² m) work, with O(τ_n^t + ξ_m^t log² m) time and O(τ_n^w + ξ_m^w ⋅ m log² m) work preprocessing on the Priority Concurrent Read Concurrent Write Parallel Random-Access Machines (P-CRCW PRAM), where τ_n^t, τ_n^w, ξ_m^t, and ξ_m^w are parameters dependent on SCERs, which are often linear in n and m, respectively.

Sorting Balls and Water: Equivalence and Computational Complexity

Authors: Takehiro Ito, Jun Kawahara, Shin-ichi Minato, Yota Otachi, Toshiki Saitoh, Akira Suzuki, Ryuhei Uehara, Takeaki Uno, Katsuhisa Yamanaka, and Ryo Yoshinaka

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 226, 11th International Conference on Fun with Algorithms (FUN 2022)


Abstract
Various forms of sorting problems have been studied over the years. Recently, two kinds of sorting puzzle apps are popularized. In these puzzles, we are given a set of bins filled with colored units, balls or water, and some empty bins. These puzzles allow us to move colored units from a bin to another when the colors involved match in some way or the target bin is empty. The goal of these puzzles is to sort all the color units in order. We investigate computational complexities of these puzzles. We first show that these two puzzles are essentially the same from the viewpoint of solvability. That is, an instance is sortable by ball-moves if and only if it is sortable by water-moves. We also show that every yes-instance has a solution of polynomial length, which implies that these puzzles belong to NP . We then show that these puzzles are NP-complete. For some special cases, we give polynomial-time algorithms. We finally consider the number of empty bins sufficient for making all instances solvable and give non-trivial upper and lower bounds in terms of the number of filled bins and the capacity of bins.

Fast and Linear-Time String Matching Algorithms Based on the Distances of q-Gram Occurrences

Authors: Satoshi Kobayashi, Diptarama Hendrian, Ryo Yoshinaka, and Ayumi Shinohara

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 160, 18th International Symposium on Experimental Algorithms (SEA 2020)


Abstract
Given a text T of length n and a pattern P of length m, the string matching problem is a task to find all occurrences of P in T. In this study, we propose an algorithm that solves this problem in O((n + m)q) time considering the distance between two adjacent occurrences of the same q-gram contained in P. We also propose a theoretical improvement of it which runs in O(n + m) time, though it is not necessarily faster in practice. We compare the execution times of our and existing algorithms on various kinds of real and artificial datasets such as an English text, a genome sequence and a Fibonacci string. The experimental results show that our algorithm is as fast as the state-of-the-art algorithms in many cases, particularly when a pattern frequently appears in a text.

DAWGs for Parameterized Matching: Online Construction and Related Indexing Structures

Authors: Katsuhito Nakashima, Noriki Fujisato, Diptarama Hendrian, Yuto Nakashima, Ryo Yoshinaka, Shunsuke Inenaga, Hideo Bannai, Ayumi Shinohara, and Masayuki Takeda

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 161, 31st Annual Symposium on Combinatorial Pattern Matching (CPM 2020)


Abstract
Two strings x and y over Σ ∪ Π of equal length are said to parameterized match (p-match) if there is a renaming bijection f:Σ ∪ Π → Σ ∪ Π that is identity on Σ and transforms x to y (or vice versa). The p-matching problem is to look for substrings in a text that p-match a given pattern. In this paper, we propose parameterized suffix automata (p-suffix automata) and parameterized directed acyclic word graphs (PDAWGs) which are the p-matching versions of suffix automata and DAWGs. While suffix automata and DAWGs are equivalent for standard strings, we show that p-suffix automata can have Θ(n²) nodes and edges but PDAWGs have only O(n) nodes and edges, where n is the length of an input string. We also give O(n |Π| log (|Π| + |Σ|))-time O(n)-space algorithm that builds the PDAWG in a left-to-right online manner. As a byproduct, it is shown that the parameterized suffix tree for the reversed string can also be built in the same time and space, in a right-to-left online manner.
