A More Efficient Algorithm for Perfect Sorting by Reversals
Résumé
We describe a new algorithm for the problem of perfect sorting a signed permutation by reversals. The worst-case time complexity of this algorithm is parameterized by the maximum prime degree $d$ of the strong interval tree, i.e. $f(d).n^{O(1)}$. This improves the best known algorithm which complexity was based on a parameter always larger than or equal to $d$.
