1 Chapter 1 Divide and Conquer Polynomial Multiplication Algorithm Theory WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn

2 Formulation of the D&C principle Divide-and-conquer method for solving a problem instance of size n: 1. Divide n c: Solve the problem directly. n > c: Divide the problem into k subproblems of sizes n 1,, n k < n (k 2). 2. Conquer Solve the k subproblems in the same way (recursively). 3. Combine Combine the partial solutions to generate a solution for the original instance. Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 2

3 Analysis Recurrence relation: T(n) : max. number of steps necessary for solving an instance of size n T(n) = a if n c T n T n k if n > c + cost for divide and combine Special case: k = 2, n 1 = n 2 = n 2 cost for divide and combine: DC n T(1) = a T(n) = 2T(n/2) + DC(n) Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 3

4 Recurrence Relations: Master Theorem Recurrence relation T n = a T n b + f n, T n = O 1 for n n 0 Cases f n = O(n c ), c < log b a T n = Θ n log b a f n = Ω n c, c > log b a T n = Θ f n f n = Θ n c log k n, c = log b a T n = Θ n c log k+1 n Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 4

5 Polynomials Real polynomial p in one variable x: p x = a n x n + a n 1 x n a 1 x 1 + a 0 Coefficients of p: a 0, a 1,, a n R Degree of p: largest power of x in p (n in the above case) Example: p(x) = 3x 3 15x x Set of all real-valued polynomials in x: R[x] (polynomial ring) Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 5

6 Operations: Addition Given: Polynomials p, q R[x] of degree n p x = a n x n + a n 1 x n a 1 x + a 0 q x = b n x n + b n 1 x n b 1 x + b 0 Compute sum p x + q x : p x + q x = a n x n + + a 0 + b n x n + + b 0 = a n + b n x n + + a 1 + b 1 x + (a 0 + b 0 ) Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 6

7 Operations: Multiplication Given: Polynomials p, q R[x] of degree n p x = a n x n + a n 1 x n a 1 x + a 0 q x = b n x n + b n 1 x n b 1 x + b 0 Product p x q(x): p x q x = a n x n + + a 0 b n x n + + b 0 = c 2n x 2n + c 2n 1 x 2n c 1 x + c 0 Obtaining c i : what products of monomials have degree i? For 0 i 2n: c i = a j b i j where a i = b i = 0 for i > n. i j=0 Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 7

8 Operations: Evaluation Given: Polynomial p R[x] of degree n p x = a n x n + a n 1 x n a 1 x + a 0 Horner s method for evaluation at specific value x 0 : p x 0 = a n x 0 + a n 1 x 0 + a n 2 x a 1 x 0 + a 0 Pseudo-code: p a n ; i n; while (i > 0) do i i 1; p p x 0 + a i end Running time: O(n) Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 8

9 Representation of Polynomials Coefficient representation: Polynomial p x R[x] of degree n is given by its n + 1 coefficients a 0,, a n : p x = a n x n + + a 1 x + a 0 Example: p x = 3x 3 15x x The most typical (and probably most natural) representation of polynomials Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 9

10 Representation of Polynomials Product of linear factors: Polynomial p x C[x]of degree n is given by its n roots p x = a n x x 1 x x 2 (x x n ) Example: p x = 3x x 2 x 3 Every polynomial has exactly n roots x i C for which p x i = 0 Polynomial is uniquely defined by the n roots and a n We will not use this representation Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 10

11 Representation of Polynomials Point-value representation: Polynomial p x R[x] of degree n is given by n + 1 point-value pairs: p = x 0, p x 0, x 1, p x 1,, x n, p x n where x i x j for i j. Example: The polynomial p x = 3x x 2 x 3 is uniquely defined by the four point-value pairs 0,0, 1,6, 2,0, 3,0. Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 11

12 Operations: Coefficient Representation Deg.-n polynomials p x = a n x n + + a 0, q x = b n x n + + b 0 Addition: p x + q x = a n + b n x n + + (a 0 + b 0 ) Time: O(n) Multiplication: i p x q x = c 2n x 2n + + c 0, where c i = a j b i j j=0 Naive solution: Need to compute product a i b j for all 0 i, j n Time: O(n 2 ) Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 12

13 Operations Point-Value Representation Degree-n polynomials p = x 0, p x 0,, x n, p x n, q = x 0, q x 0,, x n, q x n Note: we use the same points x 0,, x n for both polynomials Addition: p + q = x 0, p x 0 + q x 0,, x n, p x n + q x n Time: O(n) Multiplication: p q = x 0, p x 0 q x 0,, x 2n, p x 2n q x 2n Time: O(n) Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 13

14 Faster Multiplication? Multiplication is slow Θ n 2 when using the standard coefficient representation Try divide-and-conquer to get a faster algorithm Assume: degree is n 1, n is even Divide polynomial p x = a n 1 x n a 0 into 2 polynomials of degree n 2 1: p 0 x = an 2 1x n a 0 p 1 x = a n 1 x n an 2 p x = p 1 x x n 2 + p 0 x Similarly: q x = q 1 x x n 2 + q 0 x Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 14

15 Use Divide-And-Conquer Divide: p x = p 1 x x n 2 + p 0 x, q x = q 1 x x n 2 + q 0 x Multiplication: p x q x = p 1 x q 1 x x n + p 0 x q 1 x + p 1 x q 0 (x) x n 2 + p 0 x q 0 (x) 4 multiplications of degree n 2 1 polynomials: T n = 4T n 2 + O n Leads to T n = Θ n 2 like the naive algorithm follows immediately by using the master theorem Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 15

16 More Clever Recursive Solution Recall that p x q x = p 1 x q 1 x x n + p 0 x q 1 x + p 1 x q 0 (x) x n 2 + p 0 x q 0 (x) Compute r x = p 0 x + p 1 x q 0 x + q 1 x : Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 16

17 Karatsuba Algorithm Recursive multiplication: r x = p 0 x + p 1 x q 0 x + q 1 x p x q x = p 1 x q 1 x x n + r x p 0 x q 0 x + p 1 x q 1 (x) x n 2 + p 0 x q 0 (x) Recursively do 3 multiplications of degr. n 2 1 -polynomials T n = 3T n 2 + O(n) Gives: T n = O n 1.59 (see Master theorem) Algorithm Theory, WS 2015/16 Fabian Kuhn 17
