Abstract
We study the query complexity of exactly reconstructing a string from adaptive queries, such as substring, subsequence, and jumbled-index queries. Such problems have applications, e.g., in computational biology. We provide a number of new and improved bounds for exact string reconstruction for settings where either the string or the queries are “mixed-up”.
