Succinct Representations of Separable Graphs
Abstract. We consider the problem of highly space-efficient representation of separable graphs while supporting queries in constant time in the RAM with logarithmic word size. In p...

A characterization of fine words over a finite alphabet
To any infinite word t over a finite alphabet A we can associate two infinite words min(t) and max(t) such that any prefix of min(t) (resp. max(t)) is the lexicographically smalle...

Strings with Maximally Many Distinct Subsequences and Substrings
A natural problem in extremal combinatorics is to maximize the number of distinct subsequences for any length-n string over a finite alphabet ; this value grows exponentially, but...
