Abstract

In this paper we extend previous work on Unique Maximal Factorization Families (UMFFs) and a total (but non-lexicographic) ordering of strings called V-order. We describe linear-time algorithms for string comparison and Lyndon factorization based on V-order. We propose extensions of these algorithms to other forms of order.
