A subquadratic algorithm for minimum palindromic factorization

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: We give an mathcalO(nlogn)-time, mathcalO(n)-space algorithm for factoring a string into the minimum number of palindromic substrings. That is, given a string S[1..n], in mathcalO(nlogn) time our algorithm returns the minimum number of palindromes S1,ldots,Sell such that S=S1cdotsSell. We also show that the time complexity is mathcalO(n) on average and Omega(nlogn) in the worst case. The last result is based on a characterization of the palindromic structure of Zimin words.
