The divide-and-conquer design paradigm 1. Divide the problem(instance) into subproblems 2. Conquer the subproblems by solving them recursively 3. Combine subproblem solutions Day 4 Introduction to Algorithms L3.2

Day 4 Introduction to Algorithms L3.2 The divide-and-conquer design paradigm 1. Divide the problem (instance) into subproblems. 2. Conquer the subproblems by solving them recursively. 3. Combine subproblem solutions

Example: merge sort 1 Divide: trivial 2. Conquer. recursively sort 2 subarrays 3. Combine: Linear-time merge 7(n)=2(m2)+O(m) subproblems work dividing and combining subproblem size Day 4 Introduction to Algorithms L3.3

Day 4 Introduction to Algorithms L3.3 Example: merge sort 1. Divide: Trivial. 2. Conquer: Recursively sort 2 subarrays. 3. Combine: Linear-time merge. T(n) = 2 T(n/2) + O(n) # subproblems subproblem size work dividing and combining

Master theorem(reprise) 7(n)=a(m/b)+f(n) CASE 1: f(n)=O(nlogba-E →(n)=(n0g) CASE 2: f(n)=o(nlogbalgkn →7(n)=( logba Ig+ln) CASE 3: f (n)=92(noga+a)and af(n/b)scf(n) →7(m)=((n) Merge sort: a=2, 6=2= noga=n →CASE2(k=0)→7m)=mnln) Day 4 Introduction to Algorithms

Day 4 Introduction to Algorithms L3.4 Master theorem (reprise) T(n) = a T(n/b) + f(n) CASE 1: f(n) = O(nlogba – ε) ⇒ T(n) = Θ(nlogba) . CASE 2: f(n) = Θ(nlogba lgkn) ⇒ T(n) = Θ(nlogba lgk+1n) . CASE 3: f(n) = Ω(nlogba + ε) and a f(n/b) ≤ c f(n) ⇒ T(n) = Θ(f(n)) . Merge sort: a = 2, b = 2 ⇒ nlogba = n ⇒ CASE 2 (k = 0) ⇒ T(n) = Θ(n lg n)
