Sequence data for a group of species is often summarized by a distance matrix M where M[s, t] is the dissimilarity between the sequences of species s and t. An ordinal assertion is...
Let G be a graph embedded in the L1-plane. The stretch factor of G is the maximum over all pairs of distinct vertices p and q of G of the ratio LG 1 (p, q)/L1(p, q), where LG 1 (p...
We study the problem of enumerating substrings that are common amongst genomes that share evolutionary descent. For example, one might want to enumerate all identical (therefore co...

We present simple, fully dynamic and kinetic data structures, which are variants of a dynamic two-dimensional range tree, for maintaining the closest pair and all nearest neighbors...
