A characterization of the squares in a Fibonacci string

TLDR
This paper provides a characterization of all the squares in F, hence in every prefix Fn; this characterization naturally gives rise to a algorithm which specifiesall the squares of Fn in an appropriate encoding.

Finding maximal repetitions in a word in linear time

TL;DR: This work proves a combinatorial result asserting that the sum of exponents of all maximal repetitions of a word of length n is bounded by a linear function in n, which implies that there is only a linear number of maximal repetition in a word.

On Maximal Repetitions in Words

TL;DR: It is proved that the maximal number of maximal repetitions in general words (on arbitrary alphabet) of length n is linearly-bounded in n, and some applications and consequences are mentioned.

Simple and flexible detection of contiguous repeats using a suffix tree

TL;DR: This paper first gives a simple time- and space- optimal algorithm to find all tandem repeats, and then modify it to become a time-and-space-optimal algorithm for finding only the primitive tandem repeats.

The number of runs in a string : Improved analysis of the linear upper bound

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new approach to the analysis of runs based on the properties of subperiods: the periods of periodic parts of the runs of a string.

Maximal repetitions in strings

TL;DR: Improve dramatically the previous results by proving that c=<1.6 and showing how it could be improved by computer verification down to 1.18 or less and for the stronger result concerning the linearity of the sum of exponents, the first explicit bound is given.

Identification of common molecular subsequences.

TL;DR: This letter extends the heuristic homology algorithm of Needleman & Wunsch (1970) to find a pair of segments, one from each of two long sequences, such that there is no other Pair of segments with greater similarity (homology).

Fast Pattern Matching in Strings

TL;DR: An algorithm is presented which finds all occurrences of one given string within another, in running time proportional to the sum of the lengths of the strings, showing that the set of concatenations of even palindromes, i.e., the language $\{\alpha \alpha ^R\}^*$, can be recognized in linear time.

History of the Theory of Numbers

Abstract: THE third and concluding volume of Prof. Dickson's great work deals first with the arithmetical. theory of binary quadratic forms. A long chapter on the class-number is contributed by Mr. G. H. Cresse. Next comes an account of existing knowledge on quadratic forms in three or more variables, followed by chapters on cubic forms, Hermitian and bilinear forms, and modular invariants and covariants.History of the Theory of Numbers.Prof. Leonard Eugene Dickson. Vol. 3: Quadratic and Higher Forms. With a Chapter on the Class Number by G. H. Cresse. (Publication No. 256.) Pp. v + 313. (Washington: Carnegie Institution, 1923.) 3.25 dollars.
