Also see Fast GPU bounding boxes on tree-structured scenes[1] (unpublished paper) and notes toward a blog post[2]. This is a highly tuned GPU implementation of parentheses matching. It's actually used in Vello (the classic version in which we offload basically all the work to the GPU, not the newer CPU-GPU hybrid version in which tracking the blend stack is done on the CPU).
Earlier versions of the work were featured on HN [3][4], but this is much more sophisticated. (plus a few more zero-comment submissions)
The basic idea (bicyclic semigroup and binary search) is the same as the submission. I think earliest attribution is to Bar-On and Vishkin[5] from 1985.
I believe this work is publishable and would love to work with a student to resubmit it. Especially if you're a student or prof in Sydney, please reach out.
The rendering appears to be done specifically by the js hosted on jsdelivr so if you've blocked that as a script source you'll just get the raw LaTeX (which I assume we're all fluent in anyways, of course!)
