c0pymaster/minimizer: Supplementary files to the paper "Maximal distance minimizers for a rectangle"

This repository contains supplementary files to the paper "Maximal distance minimizers for a rectangle".

verifier folder contains the source code of the computer search program described in the paper. It can be compiled as follows:

g++ -o main -std=c++11 -pthread -DCXSC_FORCE_TLS -DCXSC_USE_TLS_PREC -O2 -Wall -Werror -Wextra -mfpmath=sse -msse2 -I<path to C-XSC>/cxsc/include -L<path to C-XSC>/cxsc/lib main.cpp -lcxsc

Note that C-XSC library should be preinstalled on your machine. You can find the library source code and installation instructions on http://www.xsc.de/. Please make sure to list flags -O2 -DCXSC_FORCE_TLS -DCXSC_USE_TLS_PREC for the installation script to use during the compilation of the library. Without the last two flags the library will not work properly in multi-threaded environment.

After compilation, the program can be run as follows:

./main <t>

where t is the number of threads you would like to use. If t=0, the program will try to guess the number of concurrent threads supported by the machine.

Case4 contains the computations used in case 4 in Section 6 of the paper.
