We derive a new generalization of lowest common ancestors (LCAs) in dags, called the lowest single common ancestor (LSCA). We show how to preprocess a static dag in linear time su...
We present two new methods for finding a lowest common ancestor (LCA) for each pair of vertices of a directed acyclic graph (dag) on n vertices and m edges. The first method is su...
Any tree can be represented in a max/ma//y compact form as a directed acyclic graph where common subtrees are factored and shared, being represented only once. Such a compaction ca...

We present new results on Cartesian trees with applications in range minimum queries and bottleneck edge queries. We introduce a cache-oblivious Cartesian tree for solving the ran...
Multiple sequence alignment is the most fundamental task in bioinformatics and computational biology. In this paper, we present a new algorithm to conduct multiple sequences align...
