Abstract

We consider the problem of storing a grammar of size n compressing a string of size N, and a set of positions {i1, . . . , i } (bookmarks) such that any substring of length l crossing one of the positions can be decompressed in O(l) time. Our solution uses space O((n + b) max{1, log* n − log*( n/b + b/n)}). Existing solutions for the bookmarking problem either require more space or a super-constant “kick-off” time to start the decompression.
