abstract = "Given a set of strings, the subsequence automaton accepts all subsequences of these strings. We will derive a lower bound for the maximum number of states of this automaton. We will prove that the size of the subsequence automaton for a set of k strings of length n is Ω(nk) for any k ≥ 1. It solves an open problem posed by Crochemore and Tron{\'i}{\v c}ek [2] in 1999, in which only the case k ≤ 2 was shown.",
