We describe a substring search problem that arises in group presentation simplification processes. We suggest a two-level searching model: skip and match levels. We give two timest...
Given a set of strings U = {T1, T2, . . . , T }, the longest common repeat problem is to find the longest common substring that appears at least twice in each string of U, conside...
The String Barcoding (SBC) problem, introduced by Rash and Gusfield (RECOMB, 2002), consists in finding a minimum set of substrings that can be used to distinguish between all mem...
Given a genome, i.e., a long string over a fixed finite alphabet, the problem is to find short (dis)similar substrings. This computationally intensive task has many biological appl...

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...
