Abstract

For any rectangular grid graph with grid units each potentially having a diagonal edge, we propose a data structure that is constructible in time linear in the number of grid units in the graph and supports linear-time queries of a shortest path between any pair of vertices in the graph. Setting the position of grid units having a diagonal edge appropriately, we can use this data structure to solve a local variant of the longest common subsequence problem or certain related problems in linear time.
