On Arithmetically Progressed Suffix Arrays

Abstract:
We characterize those strings whose suffix arrays are based on arithmetic progressions, in particular, arithmetically progressed permutations where all pairs of successive entries of the permutation have the same difference modulo n. We show that an arithmetically progressed permutation P coincides with the suffix array of a unary, binary, or ternary string. We further analyze the conditions of a given P under which we can find a uniquely defined string over either a binary or ternary alphabet having P as its suffix array. These results give rise to numerous future research directions.
