6 -notation For a given function g(n), we denote by (g(n)) the set of functions (g(n)) = {f(n): there exist positive constants c 1, c 2 and n 0 such that 0 c 1 g(n) f(n) c 2 g(n), for all n n 0 } We say g(n) is an asymptotically tight bound for f(n)
7 O-notation For a given function g(n), we denote by O(g(n)) the set of functions O(g(n)) = {f(n): there exist positive constants c and n 0 such that 0 f(n) cg(n), for all n n 0 } We say g(n) is an asymptotic upper bound for f(n) CS 4407, Algorithms
8 -notation For a given function g(n), we denote by (g(n)) the set of functions (g(n)) = {f(n): there exist positive constants c and n 0 such that 0 cg(n) f(n) for all n n 0 } We say g(n) is an asymptotic lower bound for f(n)
9 Relations Between,, O For any two functions g(n) and f(n), f(n) = (g(n)) if and only if f(n) = O(g(n)) and f(n) = (g(n)). i.e., (g(n)) = O(g(n)) (g(n)).

11 Iterative Algorithm Running Time T(n), or the running time of a particular algorithm on input of size n, is taken to be the number of times the instructions in the algorithm are executed. Pseudo code algorithm illustrates the calculation of the mean (average) of a set of n numbers: 1. n = read input from user 2. sum = 0 3. i = 0 4. while i < n 5. number = read input from user 6. sum = sum + number 7. i = i mean = sum / n The computing time for this algorithm in terms on input size n is: T(n) = 4n + 5. Statement Number of times executed n+1 5 n 6 n 7 n 8 1

36 Recursion-tree method A recursion tree models the costs (time) of a recursive execution of an algorithm. The recursion tree method is good for generating guesses for the substitution method. The recursion-tree method can be unreliable, just like any method that uses ellipses ( ). The recursion-tree method promotes intuition, however.

41 Example of recursion tree Solve T(n) = T(n/4) + T(n/2) + n 2 : n 2 (n/4) 2 (n/2) 2 (n/16) 2 (n/8) 2 (n/8) 2 (n/4) 2 (1)
42 Example of recursion tree Solve T(n) = T(n/4) + T(n/2) + n 2 : n 2 n 2 (n/4) 2 (n/2) 2 (n/16) 2 (n/8) 2 (n/8) 2 (n/4) 2 (1)
43 Example of recursion tree Solve T(n) = T(n/4) + T(n/2) + n 2 : n 2 (n/4) 2 (n/2) 2 (n/16) 2 (n/8) 2 (n/8) 2 (n/4) 2 n2 5 n 2 16 (1)

45 Example of recursion tree Solve T(n) = T(n/4) + T(n/2) + n 2 : n 2 (n/4) 2 (n/2) 2 (n/16) 2 (n/8) 2 (n/8) 2 (n/4) 2 n2 5 n n (1) Total = n = (n 2 ) geometric series

47 The master method The master method applies to recurrences of the form T(n) = a T(n/b) + f (n), where a 1, b > 1, and f is asymptotically positive.
48 Idea of master theorem Recursion tree: f (n) a f (n/b) f (n/b) f (n/b) a h = log b n f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n) a f (n/b) a 2 f (n/b 2 ) (1) #leaves = a h = a log bn = n log ba n log ba (1)
49 Three common cases Compare f (n) with n log ba : 1. f (n) = O(n log ba ) for some constant > 0. f (n) grows polynomially slower than n log ba (by an n factor). Solution: T(n) = (n log ba ). # leaves in recursion tree CS 4407, Algorithms
50 Idea of master theorem Recursion tree: f (n) a f (n/b) f (n/b) a h = log b n f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b) f (n) a f (n/b) a 2 f (n/b 2 ) (1) CASE 1: The weight increases geometrically from the root to the leaves. The leaves hold a constant n log ba (1) fraction of the total weight. (n log ba )
51 Three common cases Compare f (n) with n log ba : 2. f (n) = (n log ba lg k n) for some constant k 0. f (n) and n log ba grow at similar rates. Solution: T(n) = (n log ba lg k+1 n). CS 4407, Algorithms
52 Idea of master theorem Recursion tree: f (n) a f (n/b) f (n/b) a h = log b n f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b) f (n) a f (n/b) a 2 f (n/b 2 ) (1) CASE 2: (k = 0) The weight is approximately the same on each of the log b n levels. n log ba (1) (n log ba lg n)
53 Three common cases (cont.) Compare f (n) with n log ba : 3. f (n) = (n log ba + ) for some constant > 0. f (n) grows polynomially faster than n log ba (by an n factor), and f (n) satisfies the regularity condition that a f (n/b) c f (n) for some constant c < 1. Solution: T(n) = ( f (n) ).
54 Idea of master theorem Recursion tree: f (n) a f (n/b) f (n/b) a h = log b n f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b 2 ) f (n/b) f (n) a f (n/b) a 2 f (n/b 2 ) (1) CASE 3: The weight decreases geometrically from the root to the leaves. The root holds a constant fraction of the total weight. n log ba (1) ( f (n))
55 Examples Ex. T(n) = 4T(n/2) + n a = 4, b = 2 n log ba = n 2 ; f (n) = n. CASE 1: f (n) = O(n 2 ) for = 1. T(n) = (n 2 ). Ex. T(n) = 4T(n/2) + n 2 a = 4, b = 2 n log ba = n 2 ; f (n) = n 2. CASE 2: f (n) = (n 2 lg 0 n), that is, k = 0. T(n) = (n 2 lg n).
56 Examples Ex. T(n) = 4T(n/2) + n 3 a = 4, b = 2 n log ba = n 2 ; f (n) = n 3. CASE 3: f (n) = (n 2 + ) for = 1 and 4(cn/2) 3 cn 3 (reg. cond.) for c = 1/2. T(n) = (n 3 ). Ex. T(n) = 4T(n/2) + n 2 /lg n a = 4, b = 2 n log ba = n 2 ; f (n) = n 2 /lg n. Master method does not apply. In particular, for every constant > 0, we have n (lg n).
57 Growth Function Summary Defined the mathematical principles for specifying the runtime of an algorithm Classified the growth functions, O,, o, Defined several relationships among the growth functions Theta f(n) = θ(g(n)) f(n) c g(n) BigOh f(n) = O(g(n)) f(n) c g(n) Omega f(n) = Ω(g(n)) f(n) c g(n) Little Oh f(n) = o(g(n)) f(n) << c g(n) Little Omega f(n) = ω(g(n)) f(n) >> c g(n) CS 4407, Algorithms
58 Appendix: Review of Growth Functions Detailed review of different growth functions
59 A Simple Example INPUT: a sequence of n numbers OUTPUT: the smallest number among them 1. x T[1] 2. for i 2 to n do 3. if T[i] < x then x T[i] * Performance of this algorithm is a function of n. CS 4407, Algorithms
60 Runtime Analysis Elementary operation: an operation whose execution time can be bounded above by a constant depending on implementation used. Assume all elementary operations can be executed at unit cost. This is not true, but they are within some constant factor of each other. We are mainly concerned about the order of growth.
61 Order of Growth For very large input size, it is the asymptotic rate of growth (or order of growth) that matters. We can ignore the lower-order terms, since they are relatively insignificant for very large n. We can also ignore leading term s constant coefficients, since they are not as important for the rate of growth in computational efficiency for very large n. Higher order functions of n are normally considered less efficient. CS 4407, Algorithms
62 Comparisons of Algorithms Multiplication classical technique: O(nm) divide-and-conquer: O(nm ln1.5 ) ~ O(nm 0.59 ) For operands of size 1000, takes 40 & 15 seconds respectively on a Cyber 835. Sorting insertion sort: (n 2 ) merge sort: (n lg n) For 10 6 numbers, it took 5.56 hrs on a supercomputer using machine language and min on a PC using C/C++. CS 4407, Algorithms
63 Why Order of Growth Matters Computer speeds double every two years, so why worry about algorithm speed? When speed doubles, what happens to the amount of work you can do? CS 4407, Algorithms
64 Effect of Faster Machines H/W Speed Comp. of Alg. No. of items sorted 1 M * 2 M Gain * Million operations per second. Ο(n 2 ) O(n lgn) Higher gain with faster hardware for more efficient algorithm. Results are more dramatic for higher speeds: for the n lg n algorithm, doubling the speed almost doubles the number of items that can be sorted. CS 4407, Algorithms

69 Example 3n 2 + 7n + 8= (n 2 ) What constants for n 0, c 1, and c 2 will work? Make c 1 a little smaller than leading coefficient, and c 2 a little bigger To compare orders of growth, look at the leading term CS 4407, Algorithms

72 Definition of Theta 3n 2 + 7n + 8 = θ(n 2 ) c c n, n n, c g( n) f ( n) c g( n) 1, 2,
73 Definition of Theta 3n 2 + 7n + 8 = θ(n 2 ) c c n, n n, c g( n) f ( n) c g( n) 1, 2, ?? c 1 n 2 3n 2 + 7n + 8 c 2 n 2 CS 4407, Algorithms
74 Definition of Theta 3n 2 + 7n + 8 = θ(n 2 ) c c n, n n, c g( n) f ( n) c g( n) 1, 2, n 2 3n 2 + 7n n 2 CS 4407, Algorithms
75 Definition of Theta 3n 2 + 7n + 8 = θ(n 2 ) c c n, n n, c g( n) f ( n) c g( n) 1, 2, False CS 4407, Algorithms
76 Definition of Theta 3n 2 + 7n + 8 = θ(n 2 ) c c n, n n, c g( n) f ( n) c g( n) 1, 2, False CS 4407, Algorithms
77 Definition of Theta 3n 2 + 7n + 8 = θ(n 2 ) c c n, n n, c g( n) f ( n) c g( n) 1, 2, True CS 4407, Algorithms
78 Definition of Theta 3n 2 + 7n + 8 = θ(n 2 ) c c n, n n, c g( n) f ( n) c g( n) 1, 2, n 8 3 n 2 3n 2 + 7n n 2 CS 4407, Algorithms
79 Running Times The running time is O(f(n)) Worst case is O(f(n)) Running time is (f(n)) Best case is (f(n)) Can still say Worst case running time is (f(n)) Means worst case running time is given by some unknown function g(n) (f(n))
80 Example Insertion sort takes (n 2 ) worst case time, so sorting (as a problem) is O(n 2 ) Any sort algorithm must look at each item, so sorting is (n) In fact, using (e.g.) merge sort, sorting is (n lg n) in the worst case
81 Asymptotic Notation in Equations Asymptotic notation is used to replace expressions containing lower-order terms. For example, 4n 3 + 3n 2 + 2n + 1 = 4n 3 + 3n 2 + (n) = 4n 3 + (n 2 ) = (n 3 ) In equations, (f(n)) always stands for an anonymous function g(n) (f(n)). In the example above, (n 2 ) stands for 3n 2 + 2n + 1.
82 o-notation For a given function g(n), we denote by o(g(n)) the set of functions: o(g(n)) = {f(n): for any positive constant c > 0, there exists a constant n 0 > 0 such that 0 f(n) < cg(n) for all n n 0 } f(n) becomes insignificant relative to g(n) as n approaches infinity: lim [f(n) / g(n)] = 0 n We say g(n) is an upper bound for f(n) that is not asymptotically tight.
83 O(*) versus o(*) O(g(n)) = {f(n): there exist positive constants c and n 0 such that 0 f(n) cg(n), for all n n 0 }. o(g(n)) = {f(n): for any positive constant c > 0, there exists a constant n 0 > 0 such that 0 f(n) < cg(n) for all n n 0 }. Thus o(f(n)) is a weakened O(f(n)). For example: n 2 = O(n 2 ) n 2 o(n 2 ) n 2 = O(n 3 ) n 2 = o(n 3 )
84 -notation For a given function g(n), we denote by functions (g(n)) the set of (g(n)) = {f(n): for any positive constant c > 0, there exists a constant n 0 > 0 such that 0 cg(n) < f(n) for all n n 0 } f(n) becomes arbitrarily large relative to g(n) as n approaches infinity: lim [f(n) / g(n)] = n We say g(n) is a lower bound for f(n) that is not asymptotically tight.
85 Limits lim [f(n) / g(n)] = 0 f(n) (g(n)) n lim [f(n) / g(n)] < f(n) (g(n)) n 0 < lim [f(n) / g(n)] < f(n) (g(n)) n 0 < lim [f(n) / g(n)] f(n) (g(n)) n lim [f(n) / g(n)] = f(n) (g(n)) n lim [f(n) / g(n)] undefined n can t say

96 Review on Summation Why do we need summation formulas? We need them for computing the running times of some algorithms. (CLRS/Chapter 3) Example: Maximum Subvector Given an array a[1 n] of numeric values (can be positive, zero and negative) determine the subvector a[i j] (1 i j n) whose sum of elements is maximum over all subvectors
97 Reviews on Summation MaxSubvector(a, n) maxsum 0; for i 1 to n for j = i to n sum 0; for k i to j sum += a[k] maxsum max(sum, maxsum); return maxsum; n n j T(n) = 1 i=1 j=i k=i NOTE: This is not a simplified solution. What is the final answer?
