Let $X=(X_i)_{ige 1}$ and $Y=(Y_i)_{ige 1}$ be two sequences of independent and identically distributed (iid) random variables taking their values, uniformly, in a common totally ordered finite alphabet. Let LCI$_n$ be the length of the longest common and (weakly) increasing subsequence of $X_1cdots X_n$ and $Y_1cdots Y_n$. As $n$ grows without bound, and when properly centered and normalized, LCI$_n$ is shown to converge, in distribution, towards a Brownian functional that we identify.

We consider the expected length of the longest common subsequence between two random words of lengths $n$ and $(1-varepsilon)kn$ over $k$-symbol alphabet. It is well-known that this quantity is asymptotic to $gamma_{k,varepsilon} n$ for some constant
$gamma_{k,varepsilon}$. We show that $gamma_{k,varepsilon}$ is of the order $1-cvarepsilon^2$ uniformly in $k$ and $varepsilon$. In addition, for large $k$, we give evidence that $gamma_{k,varepsilon}$ approaches $1-tfrac{1}{4}varepsilon^2$, and prove a matching lower bound.
Let $W^{(n)}$ be the $n$-letter word obtained by repeating a fixed word $W$, and let $R_n$ be a random $n$-letter word over the same alphabet. We show several results about the length of the longest common subsequence (LCS) between $W^{(n)}$ and $R_n
$; in particular, we show that its expectation is $gamma_W n-O(sqrt{n})$ for an efficiently-computable constant $gamma_W$. This is done by relating the problem to a new interacting particle system, which we dub frog dynamics. In this system, the particles (`frogs) hop over one another in the order given by their labels. Stripped of the labeling, the frog dynamics reduces to a variant of the PushTASEP. In the special case when all symbols of $W$ are distinct, we obtain an explicit formula for the constant $gamma_W$ and a closed-form expression for the stationary distribution of the associated frog dynamics. In addition, we propose new conjectures about the asymptotic of the LCS of a pair of random words. These conjectures are informed by computer experiments using a new heuristic algorithm to compute the LCS. Through our computations, we found periodic words that are more random-like than a random word, as measured by the LCS.
We investigate the behavior of optimal alignment paths for homologous (related) and independent random sequences. An alignment between two finite sequences is optimal if it corresponds to the longest common subsequence (LCS). We prove the existence o
f lowest and highest optimal alignments and study their differences. High differences between the extremal alignments imply the high variety of all optimal alignments. We present several simulations indicating that the homologous (having the same common ancestor) sequences have typically the distance between the extremal alignments of much smaller size than independent sequences. In particular, the simulations suggest that for the homologous sequences, the growth of the distance between the extremal alignments is logarithmical. The main theoretical results of the paper prove that (under some assumptions) this is the case, indeed. The paper suggests that the properties of the optimal alignment paths characterize the relatedness of the sequences.
Chen proposed a conjecture on the log-concavity of the generating function for the symmetric group with respect to the length of longest increasing subsequences of permutations. Motivated by Chens log-concavity conjecture, B{o}na, Lackner and Sagan f
urther studied similar problems by restricting the whole symmetric group to certain of its subsets. They obtained the log-concavity of the corresponding generating functions for these subsets by using the hook-length formula. In this paper, we generalize and prove their results by establishing the Schur positivity of certain symmetric functions. This also enables us to propose a new approach to Chens original conjecture.
For a partial word $w$ the longest common compatible prefix of two positions $i,j$, denoted $lccp(i,j)$, is the largest $k$ such that $w[i,i+k-1]uparrow w[j,j+k-1]$, where $uparrow$ is the compatibility relation of partial words (it is not an equival
ence relation). The LCCP problem is to preprocess a partial word in such a way that any query $lccp(i,j)$ about this word can be answered in $O(1)$ time. It is a natural generalization of the longest common prefix (LCP) problem for regular words, for which an $O(n)$ preprocessing time and $O(1)$ query time solution exists. Recently an efficient algorithm for this problem has been given by F. Blanchet-Sadri and J. Lazarow (LATA 2013). The preprocessing time was $O(nh+n)$, where $h$ is the number of holes in $w$. The algorithm was designed for partial words over a constant alphabet and was quite involved. We present a simple solution to this problem with slightly better runtime that works for any linearly-sortable alphabet. Our preprocessing is in time $O(nmu+n)$, where $mu$ is the number of blocks of holes in $w$. Our algorithm uses ideas from alignment algorithms and dynamic programming.
