Grammar-compressed Self-index with Lyndon Words

We introduce a new class of straight-line programs (SLPs), named the Lyndon SLP, inspired by the Lyndon trees (Barcelo, 1990). Based on this SLP, we propose a self-index data structure of $O(g)$ words of space that can be built from a string $T$ in $O(n\lg n)$ expected time, retrieving the starting positions of all occurrences of a pattern $P$ of length $m$ in $O(m + \lg m \lg n + occ \lg g)$time,where$n$isthelengthof$T$,$g$ is the size of the Lyndon SLP for $T$, and $occ$ is the number of occurrences of $P$ in $T$.
