Back to this thread...
I've worked up an explicit variant, sig3, using I. and E. - fairly
simple-minded,
but might be of interest. Also revisiting sig1 for comparison. sig3 is
not so good for
space, but is reasonably fast for the example.
NB. minmd =: (({.@:/:~)`(<./)@.(0-:{.@:(0&{.)))
minmd =: {.@:/:~ NB. this works for strings as well as numeric arrays
sig1 =: {.@(/:~)@:(|."0 1~) (I.@:= minmd)
NB. rotate each occurrence of minimum pair to front
sig2 =: 13 : '{./:~ y |."0 1~ i#~ (=minmd) y {~ <: i =. I. y = minmd y'
sig3 =: 3 : 0
b =. (,.~) y
NB. following replaces values by characters - assuming nub is small enough!
NB. but it doesn't appear to save space!
NB. b =. (,.~) ((~.@:,) (a.{~i.) ]) y
'm n' =. $y
bool =. m#1
for_pad. }.i.<: m do.
'a b' =. ({.;}.) b
if. bool{~<:pad do.
if. +/ i =. (n {.a) (+/@:E.)"1 b do.
bool =. 0 (pad + I.i) } bool
end.
end.
end.
bool

Also, I can confirm that Henry's canonical shift crashes this version of Jqt

I rewrote two explicit and perhaps clearer versions of my sig verb. Both work
on the same principle as the original, but one uses a bit vector and the other
uses a list of indices, and the indices are a bit faster (pun probably
intended). I prefer the bit vector aesthetically though.
Both basically store the set of indices where possible lexicographically
minimal rotations could start (b and i in the verbs). On iteration n, the
starting index of rotations whose nth element is not minimal among the nth
elements of all possibly minimal rotations are removed from the aforementioned
set. The iteration continues until only one possible rotation is left, and for
a maximum of #y times, in which case all elements of y are identical and so any
rotation will do.
If I am not mistaken (I might be, have to hurry and go now), since there are a
maximum of #y iterations and each includes at most #y comparisons (= <./), the
number of comparisons is at worst quadratic in the length of y. This happens when
1=#~.y, but most of the time this number is much smaller.
sigb=: (|.~ 3 : 0)"1
b=. 1"0 y
for. y do.
if. 1 = +/b do. break. end.
b=. (= <./)&.(b&#) y
y=. 1|.y
end.
b i. 1
)
sigi=: (|.~ 3 : 0)"1
i=. i.#y
for. y do.
if. 1 = #i do. break. end.
i=. i ((= <./)@:{ # [) y
y=. 1|.y
end.
