The complexity of an algorithm is the cost, measured in running time, or storage, or whatever units are relevant, of using the algorithm to solve one of those problems. This book is about algorithms and complexity, and so it is about methods for solving problems on computers and the costs (usually the running time) of using those methods. Computing takes time. Some problems take a very long time, others can be done quickly. Some problems seem to take a long time, and then someone discovers a faster way to do them (a ‘faster algorithm’). The study of the amount of computational effort that is needed in order to perform certain kinds of computations is the study of computational complexity. Naturally, we would expect that a computing problem for which millions of bits of input data are required would probably take longer than another problem that needs only a few items of input. So the time complexity of a calculation is measured by expressing the running time of the calculation as a function of some measure of the amount of data that is needed to describe the problem to the computer. For instance, think about this statement: “I just bought a matrix inversion program, and it can invert an \( n \times n \) matrix in just \( 1.2n^3 \) minutes.” We see here a typical description of the complexity of a certain algorithm. The running time of the program is being given as a function of the size of the input matrix. A faster program for the same job might run in \( 0.8n^3 \) minutes for an \( n \times n \) matrix. If someone were to make a really important discovery (see section 2.4), then maybe we could actually lower the exponent, instead of merely shaving the multiplicative constant. Thus, a program that would invert an \( n \times n \) matrix in only \( n^2 \log n \) minutes would represent a striking improvement of the state of the art. For the purposes of this book, a computation that is guaranteed to take at most \( c n^3 \) time for input of size \( n \) will be thought of as 'easy' computation. One that needs at most \( n^{10} \) time is also easy. If a certain calculation on an \( n \times n \) matrix were to require \( 2^n \) minutes, then that would be a 'hard' problem. Naturally some of the computations that we are calling 'easy' may take a very long time to run, but still, from our present point of view the important distinction to maintain will be the polynomial time guarantee or lack of it. The general rule is that if the running time is not a polynomial function of the amount of input data, then the calculation is an easy one; otherwise it’s hard. Many problems in computer science are known to be easy. To convince someone that a problem is easy, it is enough to describe a fast method for solving that problem. To convince someone that a problem is hard is hard, because you will have to prove to them that it is impossible to find a fast way of doing the calculation. It will not be enough to point to a particular algorithm and to lament its slowness. After all, that algorithm may be slow, but maybe there’s a faster way. Matrix inversion is easy. The familiar Gaussian elimination method can invert an \( n \times n \) matrix in time of at most \( O(n^3) \). To give an example of a hard computational problem we have to go far afield. One interesting one is called the 'tiling problem'. Suppose we are given infinitely many identical floor tiles, each shaped like a regular hexagon. Then we can tile the whole plane with them, i.e., we can cover the plane with no empty spaces left over. This can also be done if the tiles are identical rectangles, but not if they are regular hexagons. In Fig. 0.1 we show a tiling of the plane by identical rectangles, and in Fig. 0.2 is a tiling by regular hexagons. --- 1.

For instance, if we write \(1101\), then we want an 8, a 4 and a 1, so this must be the decimal number 13. We will write \( (13)_{10} = (1101)_2 \) to mean that the number 13, in the base 10, is the same as the number 1101, in the base 2. In the binary system (base 2) the only digits we will ever need are 0 and 1. What that means is that if we use only 0’s and 1’s then we can represent every number in exactly one way. The unique representation of every number is, after all, what we must expect and demand of any proposed system. Let’s elaborate on this last point. If we were allowed to use more digits than just 0’s and 1’s then we would be able to represent the number \( (13)_{10} \) as a binary number in a whole lot of ways. For instance, we might make the mistake of allowing digits 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. Then 13 would be representable as \( 3 \cdot 2^2 + 1 \cdot 2^1 + 0 \cdot 2^0 \) etc. So if we were to allow too many different digits, then numbers would be representable in more than one way as a string of digits. If we were to allow too few different digits then we would find that some numbers have no representation at all. For instance, if we were to use the decimal system with only the digits 0, 1, ..., 9, then infinitely many numbers would not be able to be represented, so we had better keep the 9's. The general proposition is this. ## Theorem 1.2.1 Let \( b > 1 \) be a positive integer (the ‘base’). Then every positive integer \( n \) can be written in one and only one way in the form \[ n = d_k b^k + d_{k-1} b^{k-1} + d_{k-2} b^{k-2} + \ldots \] if the digits \( d_0, d_1, \ldots \) lie in the range \( 0 \leq d_i < b - 1 \) for all \( i \). **Remark:** The theorem says, for instance, that in the base 10 we need the digits 0, 1, 2, ..., 9; in the base 2 we need only 0 and 1, in the base 16 we need sixteen digits, etc. **Proof of the theorem:** If \( b \) is fixed, the proof is by induction on \( n \), the number being represented. Clearly, the number 1 can be represented in one and only one way with the available digits (why?). Suppose, inductively, that every integer \( 1, 2, \ldots, n - 1 \) is uniquely representable. Now consider the integer \( n \). Define \( n \mod b \). Then \( d \) is one of the permissible digits. By induction, the number \( n - d \) is uniquely representable, say \[ n - d = \frac{n - d}{b} \] Then clearly, \[ n = d + b \cdot \frac{n - d}{b} \] \[ = d + d_0 b + d_1 b^2 + d_2 b^3 + \ldots \] is a representation of \( n \) that uses only the allowed digits. Finally, suppose that \( n \) has some other representation in this form also. Then we would have \[ n = a_0 + a_1 b + a_2 b^2 + \ldots \] \[ = c_0 + c_1 b + c_2 b^2 + \ldots \] Since \( a_0 \) and \( c_0 \) are both equal to \( n \mod b \), they are equal to each other. Hence the number \( n' = (n - a_0)/b \) has two different representations, which contradicts the inductive assumption, since we have assumed the truth of the result for all \( n < n \). The bases \( b \) that are the most widely used are, aside from 10, 2 (‘binary system’), 8 (‘octal system’) and 16 (‘hexadecimal system’). The binary system is extremely simple because it uses only two digits. This is very convenient if you’re a computer or a computer designer, because the digits can be determined by some component being either ‘on’ (digit 1) or ‘off’ (digit 0). The binary digits of a number are called its bits or its bit string.

The trick is this. When confronted with a series that is similar to, but not identical with, a known series, write down the known series as an equation, with the series on one side and its sum on the other. Even though the unknown series involves a particular value of \( x \) in this case \( z = 2 \), keep the known series with its variable unrestricted. Then reach for an appropriate tool that will be applied to both sides of that equation, and whose result will be that the known series will have been changed into the one whose sum we need. In this case, since (1.3.7) reminds us of (1.3.1), we'll begin by writing down (1.3.1) again, \[ (1 - z)^{-n} = 1 + z + z^2 + \ldots + z^{n-1} \tag{1.3.8} \] Don’t replace \( z \) by \( 2 \) yet, just walk up to the equation (1.3.8) carrying your tool kit and ask what kind of surgery you could do to both sides of (1.3.8) that would be helpful in evaluating the unknown (1.3.7). We are going to reach into our tool kit and pull out \( \frac{d}{dz} \). In other words, we are going to differentiate (1.3.8). The reason for choosing differentiation is that it will put the missing multipliers \( 1, 2, 3, \ldots, N \) into (1.3.8). After differentiation, (1.3.8) becomes \[ 1 + 2z + 3z^2 + 4z^3 + \ldots + (n - 1)z^{n-2} = \frac{1 - n z^{n-1} + (n - 1)z^n}{(1-z)^2} \tag{1.3.9} \] Now it's easy. To evaluate the sum (1.3.7), all we have to do is to substitute \( z = 2 \), \( n = N + 1 \) in (1.3.9), to obtain, after simplifying the right-hand side, \[ 1 + 2 + 2^2 + 3 \cdot 2^3 + \ldots + N 2^{N-1} = 1 + (N - 1)2^N \tag{1.3.10} \] Next try this one: \[ \frac{1}{2^3} + \frac{1}{3^3} + \ldots \tag{1.3.11} \] If we rewrite the series using summation signs, it becomes \[ \sum_{j=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{j^3} \] Comparison with the series \( 200 \) shows great resemblance to the species (1.3.6). In fact, if we put \( x = \frac{1}{3} \) in (1.3.6) it tells us that \[ \sum_{j=1}^{\infty} \frac{1}{j^3} = \frac{1}{3} \log(3/2) \tag{1.3.12} \] The desired sum (1.3.11) is the result of dropping the term with \( j = 1 \) from (1.3.12), which shows that the sum in (1.3.11) is equal to \( \log(3/2) - 1 \). In general, suppose that \( f(z) = \sum a_n z^n \) is some series that we know. Then \( \sum n a_n z^{n-1} = f'(z) \) and \( \sum n^2 a_n z^{n-2} = z \frac{d}{dz} f'(z) \). In other words, if the \( n \)-th coefficient is multiplied by \( n^2 \), then the function changes from \( f(z) \) to \( z f''(z) \). If we apply the rule again, we find that multiplying the \( n \)-th coefficient of a power series by \( n^2 \) changes the sum from \( f(z) \) to \( \left( z \frac{d}{dz} \right)^2 f(z) \): \[ \sum_{j=0}^{\infty} j^2 z^j / j! = \left( z \frac{d}{dz} \right)^2 e^z \] ``` Image Analysis: ## Image Analysis ### 1.

It isn't even obvious that the formula (1.4.15) gives integer values for the \( F_n \). The reader should check that the formula indeed gives the first few \( F_n \) correctly. Just to exercise our newly acquired skills in asymptotics, let’s observe that since \( (1 + \sqrt{5})/2 > 1 \) and \( |(1 - \sqrt{5})/2| < 1 \), it follows that when \( n \) is large we have \[ F_n \sim \left( \frac{(1 + \sqrt{5})}{2} \right)^{n+1}/\sqrt{5}. \] The process of looking for a solution in a certain form, namely in the form \( \alpha^n \), is subject to the same kind of special treatment, in the case of repeated roots, that we find in differential equations. Corresponding to a double root of the associated quadratic equation \( \alpha^2 - \alpha \omega - 1 = 0 \) would find two independent solutions \( \alpha^n \) and \( n \alpha^n \), so the general solution would be in the form \( \alpha^n(c_1 + c_2 n) \). ### Example Consider the recurrence \[ x_{n+1} = 2x_n - x_{n-1} \quad (n \geq 1; \quad x_0 = 5; \quad x_1 = 5). \] (1.4.16) If we try a solution of the type \( x_n = \alpha^n \), then we find that it satisfies the quadratic equation \( \alpha^2 = 2\alpha - 1 \). Hence the two roots are \( 1 \) and \( 1 \). The general solution is \( x_n = c_1 \alpha^n + c_2 n \alpha^n \). After inserting the given initial conditions, we find that \[ x_0 = 1 = c_1; \quad x_1 = 5 = c_1 + c_2. \] If we solve for \( c_1 \) and \( c_2 \) we obtain \( c_1 = 1, \quad c_2 = 4 \), and therefore the complete solution of the recurrence (1.4.16) is given by \( x_n = 4n + 1 \). Now let’s look at recurrent inequalities, like this one: \[ x_{n+1} \leq x_n + x_{n-1} + n^2 \quad (n \geq 1; \quad x_0 = 0; \quad x_1 = 0). \] (1.4.17) The question is, what restriction is placed on the growth of the sequence \( \{ x_n \} \) by (1.4.17)? By analogy with the case of difference equations with constant coefficients, the thing to try here is \( x_n \leq K n^r \). So suppose it is true that \( x_n \leq K n^r \) for all \( n = 0, 1, 2, ..., N \). Then from (1.4.17) with \( n = N \) we find \[ x_{N+1} \leq K N^r + K N^{r-1} + N^2. \] Let \( c \) be the positive real root of the equation \( z^2 = c + 1 \) and suppose that \( \alpha > c \). Then \( \alpha^2 > \alpha + 1 \), say, where \( t > 0 \). Hence, \[ x_{N+1} \leq K N^{r-1}(1 + \alpha) + N^2 = K N^{r-1}(\alpha - t) + N^2 = K^{N+1} \left( K^{r-1} - N^r \right). \] (1.4.18) In order to ensure that \( x_{N+1} < K^{N+1}N^2 \), we need to fix \( K \). \[ K > \max \left( \frac{N^2}{K^{r-1}} \right). \] (1.4.19) In which the right member is clearly finite; the inductive step will go through. The conclusion is that (1.4.17) implies that for every fixed \( t > 0 \), \( x_n = O(n^{c+\epsilon}) \), where \( c = (1 + \sqrt{5})/2 \). The same argument applies to the general situation that is expressed in Image Analysis: ### Comprehensive Examination of the Attached Visual Content #### 1. **Localization and Attribution** - **Image on Page:** - This content is located centrally on the page and spans the entire document width. - Only one image is present on the entire page. - **Image Number: 1** #### 2. **Object Detection and Classification** - **Detected Objects:** - **Text:** - The content is predominantly textual, with paragraphs of written information. - **Formulas and Equations:** - Several mathematical expressions and formulas are present throughout the content. - **Example Box:** - There is a boxed example with mathematical steps and logical explanations. #### 3. **Scene and Activity Analysis** - **Scene Description:** - The scene is an academic or instructional document, likely a textbook or a study guide on mathematics, particularly focusing on recurrence relations and asymptotics in mathematical sequences. - **Main Actors and Actions:** - **Main Actors:** - The document appears to address the reader directly, guiding them through mathematical concepts. - **Actions:** - Explaining mathematical theories. - Solving equations. - Providing proofs and examples. #### 4. **Text Analysis** - **Extracted Text:** - **Introduction:** - Discussion begins with the Fibonacci numbers and transitions into more complex topics involving asymptotic analysis and recurrence relations. - **Main Body:** - The text contains formulas (1.4.15), (1.4.16), (1.4.17), (1.4.18), and (1.4.19), discussing the growth of sequences defined by recurrence relations. - An example illustrates solving a basic recurrence relation. - **Significance:** - The text aims to educate the reader on solving recurrence relations, particularly those similar to differential equations with repeated roots.

Text Analysis: 1. **Extracted Text:** ``` 8. Write out a complete proof of theorem 1.4.1. 9. Show by an example that the conclusion of theorem 1.4.1 may be false if the phrase ‘for every fixed ϵ0 > 0...’ were replaced by ‘for every fixed ϵ > 0 ...’. 10. In theorem 1.4.1 we find the phrase: ‘…the positive real root of …’. Prove that this phrase is justified, in that the equation shown always has exactly one positive real root. Exactly what special properties of that equation did you use in your proof? 1.5 Counting For a given positive integer n, consider the set {1,2,...,n}. We will denote this set by the symbol [n], and we want to discuss the number of subsets of various kinds that it has. Here is a list of all of the subsets of {2}, {1}, {2}, {1, 2}. There are 4 of them. We claim that the set [n] has exactly 2^n subsets. To see why, notice that we can construct the subsets of [n] in the following way. Either choose, or don’t choose, the element ‘1’; then either choose, or don’t choose, the element ‘2’; etc., finally choosing, or not choosing, the element ‘n’. Each of the n choices that you encountered could have been made in either 2 of ways. The totality of n choices, therefore, might have been made in 2^n different ways, so that is the number of subsets that a set of n objects has. Next, suppose we have n distinct objects, and we want to arrange them in a sequence. In how many ways can we do that? For the first object in our sequence we may choose any one of the n objects. The second element of the sequence can be any of the remaining n − 1 objects, so there are n(n − 1) possible ways to make these first two decisions. Then there are n − 2 choices for the third element, and so we have n(n − 1)(n − 2) ways to arrange the first three elements of the sequence. It is no doubt clear now that there are exactly n(n − 1)(n − 2)∙∙∙3∙2∙1 = n! ways to form the whole sequence. Of the n subsets of [n], how many have exactly k objects in them? The number of elements in a set is called its cardinality. The cardinality of a set S is denoted by |S|, so, for example, |{6}| = 6. A set whose cardinality is k is called a ‘k-set’, and a subset of cardinality k is, naturally enough, a ‘k-subset’. The question is, for how many subsets S of [n] is it true that |S| = k? We can construct k-subsets S of [n] (written S ⸦ [n] ∖) as follows. Choose an element a_1 (in possible choices). Of the remaining n − 1 elements, choose one (in n − 1 possible choices), etc., until a sequence of k different elements have been chosen. Obviously there were n(n − 1)(n − 2) ⸦⸦⸦ (n − k + 1) ways in which we might have chosen that sequence, so the number of ways to choose an (ordered) sequence of k elements from [n] is n(n − 1)(n − 2) ∙∙∙ (n − k + 1) = n!/(n − k)! But there are more sequences of k elements than there are k-subsets, because any particular k-subset S will correspond to k! different ordered sequences, namely all possible rearrangements of the elements of that subset. Hence the number of k-subsets of [n] is equal to the number of k-sequences divided by k!. In other words, there are exactly n!/[k!(n − k)!] k-subsets of a set of n objects. The quantities n!/[k!(n − k)!] are the famous binomial coefficients, and they are denoted by ( ) = n!/[k!(n − k)!] (n ≥ 0; 0 ≤ k ≤ n). Some of their special values are (n) = 1 ( ∀n ≥ 0); (n) = n ( ∀n ≥ 0); (k) = n(n − 1)/2 ( ∀n ≥ 0); (n) = 1 ( ∀n ≥ 0). ( 0 ) ( 1 ) ( 2 ) ( n ) It is convenient to define (2) to be 0 if k < 0 or if k > n.

But then \( x - x'\) ≡ 0 (mod each of the mi). Hence \( x - x'\) is divisible by \( M = m_1 m_2 \cdots m_r \). But \( | x' | ≤ M \), hence \( x = x' \). **Proof 2:** Here’s how to compute a number x that satisfies the simultaneous congruences \( x ≡ b_i \mod m_i (i = 1, r)\). First, by the extended Euclidean algorithm we can quickly find \( t_1, t_2, ..., t_r\) all \( x_i t_i mod m_i | by(i) = 1\) for j - 1 per t. For each \( x = b_1 + ... + I^(t_1, ..., t_n)\). we always have, \( x = \sum_{j=1}^r b_j (M/m_j)y_j (\mod M) \) where the first congruence holds because each \( M / m_j (j \neq k) \) is divisible by \( m_j \) and the second congruence follows since \( t_k (M/ m_k) + 1 = t_u, t_i \equiv m_i (\mod m_k)\) completing the second proof of the Chinese Remainder Theorem. Now the proof of theorem 4.5.4 follows easily, and is left as an exercise for the reader.

Each square can contain a single character from the character set that the machine recognizes. For simplicity, we can assume that the character set consists of just three symbols: '0', '1', and ' ' (blank). (b) A tape head that is capable of either reading a single character from a square on the tape or writing a single character on a square, or moving its position relative to the tape by an increment of one square in either direction. (c) A finite list of states such that at every instant the machine is exactly one of those states. The possible states of the machine are, first of all, the regular states \( q_1, \ldots, q_n \), and second, three special states: - \( q_0 \): the initial state - \( q_y \): the final state in a problem to which the answer is 'Yes' - \( q_n \): the final state in a problem to which the answer is 'No' (d) A program (or program module, if we think of it as a pluggable component) that directs the machine through the steps of a particular task. ``` ... ... ... ... ... ``` ``` ... --3 --2 --> 0 1 2 3 ... ... -- . . . -- . -- . . . -- ``` Image Analysis: ## Analysis of Attached Visual Content ### 1.
