Abstract

[We investigate the order of the r-th, 1 ≤ r < +∞, central moment of the length of the longest common subsequences of two independent random words of size n whose letters are identically distributed and independently drawn from a finite alphabet. When all but one of the letters are drawn with small probabilities, which depend on the size of the alphabet, a lower bound is shown to be of order nr∕2. This result complements a generic upper bound also of order nr∕2.]
