String Indexing for Patterns with Wildcards
We consider the problem of indexing a string of length to report the
occurrences of a query pattern containing characters and wildcards.
Let be the number of occurrences of in , and the size of
the alphabet. We obtain the following results.
- A linear space index with query time .
This significantly improves the previously best known linear space index by Lam
et al. [ISAAC 2007], which requires query time in the worst case.
- An index with query time using space , where is the maximum number of wildcards allowed in the pattern.
This is the first non-trivial bound with this query time.
- A time-space trade-off, generalizing the index by Cole et al. [STOC 2004].
We also show that these indexes can be generalized to allow variable length
gaps in the pattern. Our results are obtained using a novel combination of
well-known and new techniques, which could be of independent interest
On the nature of some SGRs and AXPs as rotation-powered neutron stars
We investigate the possibility that some SGRs/AXPs could be canonical
rotation-powered pulsars using realistic NS structure parameters instead of
fiducial values. We show that realistic NS parameters lowers the estimated
value of the magnetic field and radiation efficiency, ,
with respect to estimates based on fiducial NS parameters. We show that nine
SGRs/AXPs can be described as canonical pulsars driven by the NS rotational
energy, for computed in the soft (2--10~keV) X-ray band. We compute the
range of NS masses for which . We discuss the observed
hard X-ray emission in three sources of the group of nine potentially
rotation-powered NSs. This additional hard X-ray component dominates over the
soft one leading to in two of them. We show that 9
SGRs/AXPs can be rotation-powered NSs if we analyze their X-ray luminosity in
the soft 2--10~keV band. Interestingly, four of them show radio emission and
six have been associated with supernova remnants (including Swift J1834.9-0846
the first SGR observed with a surrounding wind nebula). These observations give
additional support to our results of a natural explanation of these sources in
terms of ordinary pulsars. Including the hard X-ray emission observed in three
sources of the group of potential rotation-powered NSs, this number of sources
with becomes seven. It remains open to verification
1) the accuracy of the estimated distances and 2) the possible contribution of
the associated supernova remnants to the hard X-ray emission.Comment: 11 pages, 14 figures, to appear in A&

Coulomb and quantum oscillator problems in conical spaces with arbitrary dimensions
The Schr\"odinger equations for the Coulomb and the Harmonic oscillator
potentials are solved in the cosmic-string conical space-time. The spherical
harmonics with angular deficit are introduced.
The algebraic construction of the harmonic oscillator eigenfunctions is
performed through the introduction of non-local ladder operators. By exploiting
the hidden symmetry of the two-dimensional harmonic oscillator the eigenvalues
for the angular momentum operators in three dimensions are reproduced.
A generalization for N-dimensions is performed for both Coulomb and harmonic
oscillator problems in angular deficit space-times.
It is thus established the connection among the states and energies of both
problems in these topologically non-trivial space-times.Comment: 15 page
