摘要:We propose a space-efficient data structure for orthogonal range search on suffix arrays. For general two-dimensional orthogonal range search problem on a set of n points, there exists an n log n (1+o(1))-bit data structure supporting O(log n)-time counting queries [Mäkinen, Navarro 2007]. The space matches the information-theoretic lower bound. However, if we focus on a point set representing a suffix array, there is a chance to obtain a space efficient data structure. We answer this question affirmatively. Namely, we propose a data structure for orthogonal range search on suffix arrays which uses O(1/(ε) n (Hâ,+1)) bits where Hâ, is the order-0 entropy of the string and answers a counting query in O(n^ε) time for any constant ε>0. As an application, we give an O(1/(ε) n (Hâ,+1))-bit data structure for the range LCP problem.
