A New Problem in String Searching
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...

Linear Time Algorithm for the Generalised Longest Common Repeat Problem
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 approximability of the String Barcoding problem
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...

Selection of DNA Markers
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...

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...
