Title: Update Query Time Trade-Off for Dynamic Suffix Arrays.

The suffix array is one of the most well known indexing data structures, and it functions as a key tool in many string algorithms. In this paper, we present a data structure for maintaining the Suffix Array of a dynamic string. For every $0 \leq \varepsilon \leq 1$, our data structure reports SA[i] in $\tilde{O}(n^{\varepsilon})$ time and handles text modification in $\tilde{O}(n^{1-\varepsilon})$ time. Additionally, our data structure enables the same query time for reporting iSA[i], with iSA being the Inverse Suffix Array of S[1 ... n]. Our data structure can be used to construct sub-linear dynamic variants of static strings algorithms or data structures that are based on the Suffix Array and the Inverse Suffix Array.Read More
