Actually a little bit shorter (and correctly including prefixes) (and,
of course, this is XPath 3.0):
('bQc', 'Qc')
[string-length(substring-before('aabQc', .))
=
min((('bQc', 'Qc')!(string-length(substring-before('aabQc', .)))))
]
To explain this in English:
From all the LHS strings
Get those that are contained in the sentential string
and whose distance to the start of the sentential string
is equal to the
minimum distance (of any of the contained LHS strings) to the start of
the sentential string.
Also, I thought that all LHS strings are presumed to be contained in
the sentential string. If not, then use this expresson:
('bQc', 'Qc')[contains('aabQc', .)]
[string-length(substring-before('aabQc', .))
=
min((('bQc', 'Qc')[contains('aabQc',
.)]!(string-length(substring-before('aabQc', .)))))

What about:
('bQc', 'Qc')
[string-length(substring-before('aabQc', .))
=
min((('bQc', 'Qc')!(string-length(substring-before('aabQc',
.))))[. gt 0])
]
