Linear-time computation of local periods

We present a linear-time algorithm for computing all local periods of a given word. This subsumes (but is substantially more powerful than) the computation of the (global) period of the word and on the other hand, the computation of a critical factorization, implied by the Critical Factorization The...

Summary:We present a linear-time algorithm for computing all local periods of a given word. This subsumes (but is substantially more powerful than) the computation of the (global) period of the word and on the other hand, the computation of a critical factorization, implied by the Critical Factorization Theorem.
