Vigemers: on the number of -mers sharing the same XOR-based minimizer
Florian Ingels, Antoine Limasset, Camille Marchet +1
In bioinformatics, minimizers have become an inescapable method for handling -mers (words of fixed size ) extracted from DNA or RNA sequencing, whether for sampling, storage,…
On the number of -mers admitting a given lexicographical minimizer
Florian Ingels, Camille Marchet, Mikaël Salson
The minimizer of a word of size (a -mer) is defined as its smallest substring of size (with ), according to some ordering on -mers. minimizers have been used…
