Fast Computation of k-Runs, Parameterized Squares, and Other Generalised Squares

Authors: Yuto Nakashima, Jakub Radoszewski, and Tomasz Waleń

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


Abstract
A k-mismatch square is a string of the form XY where X and Y are two equal-length strings that have at most k mismatches. Kolpakov and Kucherov [Theor. Comput. Sci., 2003] defined two notions of k-mismatch repeats, called k-repetitions and k-runs, each representing a sequence of consecutive k-mismatch squares of equal length. They proposed algorithms for computing k-repetitions and k-runs working in 𝒪(nklog k+output) time for a string of length n over an integer alphabet, where output is the number of the reported repeats. We show that output = 𝒪(nk log k), both in case of k-repetitions and k-runs, which implies that the complexity of their algorithms is actually 𝒪(nk log k). We apply this result to computing parameterized squares. A parameterized square is a string of the form XY such that X and Y parameterized-match, i.e., there exists a bijection f on the alphabet such that f(X) = Y. Two parameterized squares XY and X'Y' are equivalent if they parameterized match. Recently Hamai et al. [SPIRE 2024] showed that a string of length n over an alphabet of size σ contains less than nσ non-equivalent parameterized squares, improving an earlier bound by Kociumaka et al. [Theor. Comput. Sci., 2016]. We apply our bound for k-mismatch repeats to propose an algorithm that reports all non-equivalent parameterized squares in 𝒪(nσ log σ) time. We also show that the number of non-equivalent parameterized squares can be computed in 𝒪(n log n) time. This last algorithm applies to squares under any substring compatible equivalence relation and also to counting squares that are distinct as strings. In particular, this improves upon the 𝒪(nσ)-time algorithm of Gawrychowski et al. [CPM 2023] for counting order-preserving squares that are distinct as strings if σ = ω(log n).

A Modularity-Driven Framework for Unraveling Congestion Centers with Enhanced Spatial-Semantic Features

Authors: Weihua Huan, Xintao Liu, and Wei Huang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 346, 13th International Conference on Geographic Information Science (GIScience 2025)


Abstract
The propagation of traffic congestion is a complicated spatiotemporal phenomenon in urban networks. Extensive studies mainly relied on dynamic Bayesian network or deep learning approaches. However, they often struggle to adapt seamlessly to diverse data granularities, limiting their applicability. In this study, we propose a modularity-driven method to unravel the spatiotemporal congestion propagation centers, effectively addressing temporal granularity challenges through the use of the fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Our framework distinguishes itself due to its capacity to integrate enhanced spatial-semantic features while eliminating temporal granularity dependence, which consists of two data-driven modules. One is adaptive adjacency matrix learning module, which captures the spatiotemporal relationship from evolving congestion graphs by fusing node degree, spatial proximity, and the FFT of traffic state indices. The other one is local search module, which employs local dominance principles to unravel the congestion propagation centers. We validate our proposed methodology on the large-scale traffic networks in New York City, the United States. An ablation study on the dataset reveals that the combination of the three features achieves the highest modularity scores of 0.65. The contribution of our work is to provide a novel way to infer the propagation centers of traffic congestion, and reveals the flexibility of extending our framework at temporal scales. The network resilience and dynamic evolution of the identified congestion centers can provide implications for actional decisions.

Formulations and Constructions of Remote State Preparation with Verifiability, with Applications

Authors: Jiayu Zhang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 325, 16th Innovations in Theoretical Computer Science Conference (ITCS 2025)


Abstract
Remote state preparation with verifiability (RSPV) is an important quantum cryptographic primitive [Alexandru Gheorghiu and Thomas Vidick, 2019; Jiayu Zhang, 2022]. In this primitive, a client would like to prepare a quantum state (sampled or chosen from a state family) on the server side, such that ideally the client knows its full description, while the server holds and only holds the state itself. In this work we make several contributions on its formulations, constructions and applications. In more detail: - We first work on the definitions and abstract properties of the RSPV problem. We select and compare different variants of definitions [Bennett et al., 2001; Alexandru Gheorghiu and Thomas Vidick, 2019; Jiayu Zhang, 2022; Alexandru Gheorghiu et al., 2022], and study their basic properties (like composability and amplification). - We also study a closely related question of how to certify the server’s operations (instead of solely the states). We introduce a new notion named remote operator application with verifiability (ROAV). We compare this notion with related existing definitions [Summers and Werner, 1987; Dominic Mayers and Andrew Chi-Chih Yao, 2004; Zhengfeng Ji et al., 2021; Tony Metger and Thomas Vidick, 2021; Anand Natarajan and Tina Zhang, 2023], study its abstract properties and leave its concrete constructions for further works. - Building on the abstract properties and existing results [Zvika Brakerski et al., 2023], we construct a series of new RSPV protocols. Our constructions not only simplify existing results [Alexandru Gheorghiu and Thomas Vidick, 2019] but also cover new state families, for example, states in the form of 1/√2 (|0⟩ + |x_0⟩ + |1⟩ |x_1⟩). All these constructions rely only on the existence of weak NTCF [Zvika Brakerski et al., 2020; Navid Alamati et al., 2022], without additional requirements like the adaptive hardcore bit property [Zvika Brakerski et al., 2018; Navid Alamati et al., 2022]. - As a further application, we show that the classical verification of quantum computations (CVQC) problem [Dorit Aharonov et al., 2010; Urmila Mahadev, 2018] could be constructed from assumptions on group actions [Navid Alamati et al., 2020]. This is achieved by combining our results on RSPV with group-action-based instantiation of weak NTCF [Navid Alamati et al., 2022], and then with the quantum-gadget-assisted quantum verification protocol [Ferracin et al., 2018].

Short Paper
Is This Statement About A Place? Comparing two perspectives (Short Paper)

Authors: Alan M. MacEachren, Richard Caneba, Hanzhou Chen, Harrison Cole, Emily Domanico, Nicholas Triozzi, Fangcao Xu, and Liping Yang

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 114, 10th International Conference on Geographic Information Science (GIScience 2018)


Abstract
Text often includes references to places by name; in prior work, more than 20% of a sample of event-related tweets were found to include place names. Research has addressed the challenge of leveraging the geographic data reflected in text statements, with well-developed methods to recognize location mentions in text and related work on automated toponym resolution (deciding which place in the world is meant by a place name). A core issue that remains is to distinguish between text that mentions a place or places and text that is about a place or places. This paper presents the first step in research to address this challenge. The research reported here sets the conceptual and practical groundwork for subsequent supervised machine learning research; that research will leverage human-produced training data, for which a judgment is made about whether a statement is or is not about a place (or places), to train computational methods to do this classification for large volumes of text. The research step presented here focuses on three questions: (1) what kinds of entities are typically conceptualized as places, (2) what features of a statement prompt the reader to judge a statement to be about a place (or not about a place) and (3) how do judgments of whether or not a statement is about a place compare between a group of experts who have studied the concept of "place" from a geographic perspective and a cross-section of individuals recruited through a crowdsourcing platform to make these judgments.
