Abstract

Given a string x of length n and an integer constant lambda, the lambda-Cover Problem is defined to be the identification of all the sets of substrings each of equal length that cover x. This problem can be solved by a general algorithm in O(n(2)) time for constant alphabet size. We also generalize the lambda-Cover Problem, whereby a set of lambda substrings of different lengths are considered, which can be computed using the general algorithm in O(n(2)) time.
