The algorithm for the Closest Point Pair problem (that we discussed in class) is careful to ensure that it does O(n) work outside of the recursive calls. In this problem, I want to investigate the consequences of not being this careful, on the running time of algorithm for his problem. Specifically, suppose that instead of sorting the points initially (outside the recursion), we sort the points as needed (by x-coordinate and by y-coordinate) inside the recursive calls.
(a) Write down the recurrence relation that characterizes the running time of this new algorithm. (b) Solve this recurrence to obtain the running time of this new algorithm.

2. In class, we discussed the recursive Merge-Sort algorithm. This sorts the whole array by sorting the left side, sorting the right side, and then merging them. Write a similar recursive algorithm that finds the maximum element of an array. (Find the max of the left side, then find the maximum of the right side, then compare the two.) Write pseudo-code for this algorithm. Give the recurrence relation that describes the number of comparisons that your algorithm uses.

Question #4 (15 points) In class, we discussed a divide-and-conquer algorithm for matrix multiplication that involved solving eight subproblems, each half the size of the original, and performing a constant number of e(n) addition operations. Strassen's Algo- rithm, which we did not cover, reduces the number of (half-sized) subproblems to seven, with a constant number of e(n) addition and subtraction operations.

Problem 5: Recurrence relations and detailed analysis of recursive algorithm efficiency g(n: non-negative integer)  
Problem 5: Recurrence relations and detailed analysis of recursive algorithm efficiency g(n: non-negative integer) 1. if n ≤ 1 then return n 2. else return (5 * g(n─1) ─ 6 * g(n─2)) MergeSort divides the array to be sorted into two equal halves, calls itself recursively on each half to sort that subarray, and then calls the Merge algorithm to merge the two sorted halves in linear time. This leads to its two recurrence relations T(n)=2T(n/2)+cn, n>1;...

4 Problem 4 -Extra Credit Given an array A, we say that elements A and Al are swapped if J >「 but Alj]< A[i]. For example, if A - [8,5,9,7], then there are a total of3 swapped pairs, namely 8 and 5; 8 and 7; and 9 and 7 Describe a recursive algorithm that given an array A, determines the number of swapped pairs in the array in O(n log(n)) time. To analyze the algorithm, you must state the recurrence...

Problem 2: As we discussed in class, one can use an algorithm for computing all-pairs shortest paths to also compute the transitive closure of a graph. If using Floyd-Warshall for example, it is possible to do this in On") time (where as usual n is the number of nodes and m is the number of edges). Show how to compute the transitive closure of a directed graph in O(nm) time. For which type of graphs is this better than using...

C++ Linked List Implementation Motivation As we discussed in class, the data structures that you use to implement your program can have a profound impact on it's overall performance. A poorly written program will often need much more RAM and CPU time then a well-written implementation. One of the most basic data structure questions revolves around the difference between an array and a linked list. After you finish this assignment you should have a firm understanding of their operation. Problem...

Decrease-by-Half Algorithm We can solve the same problem using a decrease-by-half algorithm. This algorithm is based on the following ideas: In the base case, n 1 and the only possible solution is b 0, e 1 In the general case, divide V into a left and rnight half; then the maximum subarray can be in one of three places: o entirely in the left half; o entirely in the right half; or o...
