Suppose Ci,i= 0 and that otherwise

Suppose that W satisfies the quadrangle inequality, namely, for all i ≤ i′ ≤ j ≤ j_,

Wi, j + Wi′, j′ ≤ Wi′, j + Wi, j′

Suppose further, that W is monotone: If i ≤ i′ and j ≤ j′, then Wi, j ≤ Wi′, j′ .

a. Prove that C satisfies the quadrangle inequality.
b. Let Ri, j be the largest k that achieves the minimum Ci, k−1 + Ck, j. (That is, in case of ties, choose the largest k.) Prove that Ri, j≤ Ri, j+1 ≤ Ri+1,j+1
c. Show that R is nondecreasing along each row and column.
d. Use this to show that all entries in C can be computed in O(N2) time.
e. Which of the dynamic programming algorithms can be solved in O(N2) using these techniques?
