Structural joins: a primitive for efficient XML query pattern matching

TL;DR: It is shown that, in some cases, tree-merge algorithms can have performance comparable to stack-tree algorithms, in many cases they are considerably worse, and this behavior is explained by analytical results that demonstrate that, on sorted inputs, the stack- tree algorithms have worst-case I/O and CPU complexities linear in the sum of the sizes of inputs and output, while the tree-MERge algorithms do not have the same guarantee.

Bounds on the Complexity of the Longest Common Subsequence Problem

TL;DR: It is shown that unless a bound on the total number of distinct symbols is assumed, every solution to the problem can consume an amount of time that is proportional to the product of the lengths of the two strings.

Bounds for the String Editing Problem

TL;DR: It is shown that if the operations on symbols of the strings are restricted to tests of equality, then O(nm) operations are necessary (and sufficient) to compute the distance between two strings.
