String comparison is a fundamental problem in computer science, with applications in areas such as computational biology, text processing or compression. In this paper we address t...
LRM-Trees are an elegant way to partition a sequence of values into sorted consecutive blocks, and to express the relative position of the first element of each block within a prev...
A well studied special case of bin packing is the 3-partition problem, where n items of size > 1 4 have to be packed in a minimum number of bins of capacity one. The famous Kar...
Given a permutation π of {1, . . . , n} and a positive integer k, we give an algorithm with running time 2O(k2 log k) nO(1) that decides whether π can be partitioned into at mos...
