Div II Easy: KerimJavati

For each l like L, it takes 2 * distance(‘a’, L) + 1 seconds for Kerim to type it.

Time complexity is O(text.size())

  for (char c : text.toCharArray())

  return ans;
}

Div II Medium: CCChecker2

Simulate the process, several things to check:

  • All elements in arrays int[] moveStartRow, int[] moveStartCol, int[] moveDestRow, int[] moveDestCol, must be between 1 and n.
  • Never two cubes could take the same position.
  • Cubes must arrive at their destination at the end.
  • Moves must be valid.

Time complexity is O(moves * m), could be improved to O(moves + m + n ^ 2).

  if (checkArray(n, moveDestRow) || checkArray(n, moveStartRow) || checkArray(n, moveDestCol) || checkArray(n, moveStartCol))
      return "invalid";

Div II Hard: MaxCutFree

Consider bridges, they form a forest graph, solve the problem for each tree of this forest independently. Now the problem is converted to find the maximum independent set in a tree (a set that no two vertices out of that are adjacent). Use Dynamic Programming. For each vertex, keep two values:

  • Close: Answer for the subtree of this vertex.
  • Open: Answer for the subtree of this vertex if you don’t choose this vertex.

Now, dp[root].close is the answer.

MojisBag:

Keep trie of numbers at each moment and two elements that maximize the answer, e1, and, e2.

  • If number x added to the bag, at first try to update the answer and if updated, update e1 and e2. Then add x to trie. Time complexity: O(log MAXV).
  • If number x become removed from the bag, remove it from trie. If it’s e1 or e2, clear trie, insert elements one by one again and update the answer. Time complexity: O(q * log MAXV) if x is e1 or e2, O(log MAXV) otherwise.

What do you think about time complexity? The point is because queries are generated randomly, the probability of that x equals to e1 or e2 is 2 / n. So the mathematical expectation of time complexity is: q * (2 / q * q * log MAXV + (q – 2) / q * log MAXV) = q log (q).

MojiDeletes:

Consider xor of range [L, R] be X, we are searching for some i (L <= i <= R), such that maximizes the value X ^ a[i];

We know how to find value maximizing xor in a trie (like problem 706D from codeforces). Let’s keep a trie for each prefix of the array, name the trie constructed from numbers in the range [0, i], t[i]. For each node, keep count of the number of nodes in its subtree. Now, for answering query [L, R], we can subtract values written on nodes in t[L] from t[R + 1], from this trie we can find the answer.

One problem remains. Time complexity is now O(n ^ 2 * log MAXV). The key idea is to use persistent trie instead of constructing n tries, it reduces the time complexity to O(n * log MAXV).
