The Greedy Algorithm for the Minimum Common String Partition Problem
In the Minimum Common String Partition problem (MCSP) we are given two strings on input, and we wish to partition them into the same collection of substrings, minimizing the numbe...

Approximating Reversal Distance for Strings with Bounded Number of Duplicates
For a string A = a1 . . . an, a reversal ρ(i, j), 1 ≤ i < j ≤ n, transforms the string A into a string A = a1 . . . ai−1ajaj−1 . . . aiaj+1 . . . an, that is, the reve...

Why Large Closest String Instances Are Easy to Solve in Practice
We initiate the study of the smoothed complexity of the Closest String problem by proposing a semi-random model of Hamming distance. We restrict interest to the optimization versio...

Measures of Diversity for Populations and Distances Between Individuals with Highly Reorganizable Genomes
In this paper we address the problem of defining a measure of diversity for a population of individuals whose genome can be subjected to major reorganizations during the evolution...
