For a text given in advance, the substring minimal suffix queries ask to determine the lexicographically minimal non-empty suffix of a substring specified by the location of its occurrence in the text. We develop a data structure answering such queries optimally: in constant time after linear-time preprocessing. This improves upon the results of Babenko et al. (CPM 2014), whose trade-off solution is characterized by $Theta(nlog n)$ product of these time complexities. Next, we extend our queries to support concatenations of $O(1)$ substrings, for which the construction and query time is preserved. We apply these generalized queries to compute lexicographically minimal and maximal rotations of a given substring in constant time after linear-time preprocessing. Our data structures mainly rely on properties of Lyndon words and Lyndon factorizations. We combine them with further algorithmic and combinatorial tools, such as fusion trees and the notion of order isomorphism of strings.

We solve the problem of finding interspersed maximal repeats using a suffix array construction. As it is well known, all the functionality of suffix trees can be handled by suffix arrays, gaining practicality. Our solution improves the suffix tree based approaches for the repeat finding problem, being particularly well suited for very large inputs. We prove the corrrectness and complexity of the algorithms.
Given a string $T$, it is known that its suffix tree can be represented using the compact directed acyclic word graph (CDAWG) with $e_T$ arcs, taking overall $O(e_T+e_{{overline{T}}})$ words of space, where ${overline{T}}$ is the reverse of $T$, and supporting some key operations in time between $O(1)$ and $O(log{log{n}})$ in the worst case. This representation is especially appealing for highly repetitive strings, like collections of similar genomes or of version-controlled documents, in which $e_T$ grows sublinearly in the length of $T$ in practice. In this paper we augment such representation, supporting a number of additional queries in worst-case time between $O(1)$ and $O(log{n})$ in the RAM model, without increasing space complexity asymptotically. Our technique, based on a heavy path decomposition of the suffix tree, enables also a representation of the suffix array, of the inverse suffix array, and of $T$ itself, that takes $O(e_T)$ words of space, and that supports random access in $O(log{n})$ time. Furthermore, we establish a connection between the reversed CDAWG of $T$ and a context-free grammar that produces $T$ and only $T$, which might have independent interest.
We consider the problem of sampling and approximately counting an arbitrary given motif $H$ in a graph $G$, where access to $G$ is given via queries: degree, neighbor, and pair, as well as uniform edge sample queries. Previous algorithms for these tasks were based on a decomposition of $H$ into a collection of odd cycles and stars, denoted $mathcal{D}^*(H)={O_{k_1}, ldots, O_{k_q}, S_{p_1}, ldots, S_{p_ell}}$. These algorithms were shown to be optimal for the case where $H$ is a clique or an odd-length cycle, but no other lower bounds were known. We present a new algorithm for sampling and approximately counting arbitrary motifs which, up to $textrm{poly}(log n)$ factors, is always at least as good as previous results, and for most graphs $G$ is strictly better. The main ingredient leading to this improvement is an improved uniform algorithm for sampling stars, which might be of independent interest, as it allows to sample vertices according to the $p$-th moment of the degree distribution. Finally, we prove that this algorithm is emph{decomposition-optimal} for decompositions that contain at least one odd cycle. These are the first lower bounds for motifs $H$ with a nontrivial decomposition, i.e., motifs that have more than a single component in their decomposition.
In this work, we study longest common substring, pattern matching, and wildcard pattern matching in the asymmetric streaming model. In this streaming model, we have random access to one string and streaming access to the other one. We present streaming algorithms with provable guarantees for these three fundamental problems. In particular, our algorithms for pattern matching improve the upper bound and beat the unconditional lower bounds on the memory of randomized and deterministic streaming algorithms. In addition to this, we present algorithms for wildcard pattern matching in the asymmetric streaming model that have optimal space and time.
Minimum-weight cut (min-cut) is a basic measure of a networks connectivity strength. While the min-cut can be computed efficiently in the sequential setting [Karger STOC96], there was no efficient way for a distributed network to compute its own min-cut without limiting the input structure or dropping the output quality: In the standard CONGEST model, existing algorithms with nearly-optimal time (e.g. [Ghaffari, Kuhn, DISC13; Nanongkai, Su, DISC14]) can guarantee a solution that is $(1+epsilon)$-approximation at best while the exact $tilde O(n^{0.8}D^{0.2} + n^{0.9})$-time algorithm [Ghaffari, Nowicki, Thorup, SODA20] works only on *simple* networks (no weights and no parallel edges). Here $n$ and $D$ denote the networks number of vertices and hop-diameter, respectively. For the weighted case, the best bound was $tilde O(n)$ [Daga, Henzinger, Nanongkai, Saranurak, STOC19]. In this paper, we provide an *exact* $tilde O(sqrt n + D)$-time algorithm for computing min-cut on *weighted* networks. Our result improves even the previous algorithm that works only on simple networks. Its time complexity matches the known lower bound up to polylogarithmic factors. At the heart of our algorithm are a clever routing trick and two structural lemmas regarding the structure of a minimum cut of a graph. These two structural lemmas considerably strengthen and generalize the framework of Mukhopadhyay-Nanongkai [STOC20] and can be of independent interest.
