On the low-dimensional Steiner minimum tree problem in Hamming metric
2013
While it is known that the d-dimensional Steiner minimum tree problem in Hamming metric is NP-complete if d is part of the input, it is an open question whether this also holds for fixed dimensions. In this paper, this question is answered by showing that the Steiner minimum tree problem in Hamming metric is already NP-complete in 3 dimensions. Furthermore, we show that, the minimum spanning tree gives a 2-2d approximation on the Steiner minimum tree for d>=2. Using this result, we analyse the so-called k-LCA and A"k approximation algorithms and show improved approximation guarantees for low dimensions.
A Motzkin filter in the Tamari lattice
2015
The Tamari lattice of order n can be defined on the set T n of binary trees endowed with the partial order relation induced by the well-known rotation transformation. In this paper, we restrict our attention to the subset M n of Motzkin trees. This set appears as a filter of the Tamari lattice. We prove that its diameter is 2 n - 5 and that its radius is n - 2 . Enumeration results are given for join and meet irreducible elements, minimal elements and coverings. The set M n endowed with an order relation based on a restricted rotation is then isomorphic to a ranked join-semilattice recently defined in Baril and Pallo (2014). As a consequence, we deduce an upper bound for the rotation distan…
Matchings in three Catalan lattices
2003
In this note we consider a series of lattices that are enumerated by the well-known Catalan numbers. For each of these lattices, we exhibit a matching in a constructive way.
Generating binary trees by Glivenko classes on Tamari lattices
2003
Using algebraic-theoretic results, we give an algorithm for generating binary trees within Glivenko classes in Tamari lattices. Tamari lattices are lattices of binary trees endowed by the well-known rotation transformation.
Metric or partial metric spaces endowed with a finite number of graphs: a tool to obtain fixed point results
2014
Abstract We give some fixed point theorems in the setting of metric spaces or partial metric spaces endowed with a finite number of graphs. The presented results extend and improve several well-known results in the literature. In particular, we discuss a Caristi type fixed point theorem in the setting of partial metric spaces, which has a close relation to Ekelandʼs principle.
Periodicity vectors for labelled trees
2003
AbstractThe concept of a periodicity vector is introduced in the context of labelled trees, and some new periodicity theorems are obtained. These results constitute generalizations of the classical periodicity theorem of Fine and Wilf for words. The concept of a tree congruence is also generalized and the isomorphism between the lattice of tree congruences and the lattice of unlabelled trees (prefix codes) is established.
Hopcroft's algorithm and tree-like automata
2011
Minimizing a deterministic finite automata (DFA) is a very important problem in theory of automata and formal languages. Hopcroft's algorithm represents the fastest known solution to the such a problem. In this paper we analyze the behavior of this algorithm on a family binary automata, called tree-like automata, associated to binary labeled trees constructed by words. We prove that all the executions of the algorithm on tree-like automata associated to trees, constructed by standard words, have running time with the same asymptotic growth rate. In particular, we provide a lower and upper bound for the running time of the algorithm expressed in terms of combinatorial properties of the trees…
The Rotation χ-Lattice of Ternary Trees
2001
This paper generalizes to k-ary trees the well-known rotation transformation on binary trees. For brevity, only the ternary case is developped. The rotation on ternary trees is characterized using some codings of trees. Although the corresponding poset is not a lattice, we show that it is a χ-lattice in the sense of Leutola–Nieminen. Efficient algorithms are exhibited to compute meets and joins choosen in a particular way.
On Table Arrangements, Scrabble Freaks, and Jumbled Pattern Matching
2010
Given a string s, the Parikh vector of s, denoted p(s), counts the multiplicity of each character in s. Searching for a match of Parikh vector q (a “jumbled string”) in the text s requires to find a substring t of s with p(t) = q. The corresponding decision problem is to verify whether at least one such match exists. So, for example for the alphabet Σ = {a, b, c}, the string s = abaccbabaaa has Parikh vector p(s) = (6,3,2), and the Parikh vector q = (2,1,1) appears once in s in position (1,4). Like its more precise counterpart, the renown Exact String Matching, Jumbled Pattern Matching has ubiquitous applications, e.g., string matching with a dyslectic word processor, table rearrangements, …
