Tight bounds for top tree compression
We consider compressing labeled, ordered and rooted trees using DAG compression and top tree compression. We show that there exists a family of trees such that the size of the DAG compression is always a logarithmic factor smaller than the size of the top tree compression (even for an alphabet of size 1).
The result settles an open problem from Bille et al. (Inform. and Comput., 2015).
