ICPC 2019 Preli: G – Pairs Forming GCD

0

Problem Link: https://algo.codemarshal.org/contests/icpc-dhaka-19-preli/problems/G

Solution Idea:

  • We have to find maximum G such that there exist at least P pairs of integers (X, Y), where 1 ≤ X ≤ Y ≤ N and GCD(X, Y) = G.
  • At first, let’s try to solve a subproblem where G=1. Can we calculate the number of pairs (X, Y) where 1 ≤ X ≤ Y ≤ N and GCD(X, Y) = 1?
  • As we know Euler totient or Phi function gives us a number of X which are coprime with Y. So Phi(Y) = number of X such that GCD(X,Y) = 1.
  • So Phi(1)+Phi(2)+Phi(3)+…….+Phi(N) = number of pair (X,Y) where 1 ≤ X ≤ Y ≤ N and GCD(X, Y) = 1.
  • Now if GCD(X,Y) = 1 then GCD(GX,GY) = G.
  • So we can pre-calculate Euler totient for 1 to N and then calculate the cumulative sum of this phi[] array and store it to phiSum[] array.
  • After this, we just have to binary search for the maximum answer on the new phiSum[] array.

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

#define mx 10000007
int phi[mx];
long long phiSum[mx];

void euler_totient() {
    for(int i=0; i<mx; i++) phi[i]=i;
    for(int i=2; i<mx; i++) {
        if(phi[i]==i) {
            for(int j=i; j<mx; j+=i)
                phi[j]-=(phi[j]/i);
        }
    }
}

int solve(int n, long long p) {
    int lo=1,hi=n;
    int ret=-1;
    while(lo<=hi) {
        int mid=(lo+hi)/2;
        if(phiSum[mid]>=p) {
            ret=mid;
            hi=mid-1;
        } else {
            lo=mid+1;
        }
    }
    return ret;
}

int main() {

    euler_totient();
    for(int i=1; i<mx; i++) phiSum[i]+=phiSum[i-1]+phi[i]; //cumulative sum

    int t;
    scanf("%d",&t);
    for(int z=1; z<=t; z++) {
        long long n,p;
        scanf("%lld %lld",&n,&p);
        int ans=solve(n,p);
        printf("Case %d: ",z);
        if(ans!=-1)
            ans=n/ans;
        printf("%d\n",ans);
    }
    return 0;

Problem Link: http://codeforces.com/contest/546/problem/E
Solution Idea:

  • We can solve this problem by using maxflow. So at first make a source
  • Make the first group of vertices consisting of n vertices, each of them for one city.
  • Connect a source with ith vertex in the first group with an edge that has capacity ai.
  • Make a sink and second group of vertices in the same way, but use bi except for ai.
  • If there is a road between cities i and j or i = j. Make two edges, first should be connecting ith vertex from the first group, and jth vertex from the second group, and has infinity capacity. The second should be similar but connect jth from the first group and ith from the second group.
  • Then find a maxflow, in any complexity.
  • If maxflow is equal to the sum of ai and is equal to the sum of bi, then there exists an answer. How can we get it? We just have to check how many units are we pushing through edge connecting two vertices from different groups.

SPOJ: MKTHNUM – K-th Number

0

Problem Link: https://www.spoj.com/problems/MKTHNUM/

Solution Idea: (Merge Sort Tree)

    • At first, take input and store the input in a pair array where the first element of the ith pair is the value ai and the second element of the ith pair is i.
    • Sort the pair array with ascending order of ai
    • Build a merge sort tree using the second element of each pair of sorted pair array.
    • Now for each query i,j,k at first check how many numbers in range i to j inclusive are present in the left subtree of the current node in merge sort tree. Let the value is x. So if x<=k then it’s sure that the answer is in the left subtree. So we will go to the left subtree of the current node with k. Otherwise, we will go to right subtree of the current node with k-x;
    • In this manner when we reach a leaf node we can say that this node contains the index of our answer.

 


Light OJ: 1144 – Ray Gun

Problem Link : http://www.lightoj.com/volume_showproblem.php?problem=1144
Solution Idea:

    • There are many observations to make in order to get to a working solution.
    • For every lattice point (i, j), the ray that intersects it is unique and it’s identified by the pair , where g is the gcd of i and j.
    • The problem is now reduced to counting the number of irreducible fractions such that a ≤ N and b ≤ M. This is the same as counting for every i between 1 and N, the amount of numbers in the range [1, M] that are coprime with i.
    • Consider a certain number x with prime factors p1, p2. How do we know how many numbers in range [1, M] are coprime with it? That’s equal to M minus the amount of multiples of p1 minus the amount of multiples of p2 plus the amount of multiples of p1 * p2. This is inclusion-exclusion, and in general, if the amount of elements is even, we add, otherwise, we subtract.
    • So now we have a working (but slow) solution: Iterate over every i in the range [1, N] and for every i, factorize it, try out all combinations of primes and then, for every combination that results in a number k, add if the amount of primes is even or subtract if the amount of primes is odd.
    • The previous approach is very slow for two reasons: You’ll be factorizing each number every time and you’ll be doing a lot of repeated work. Every combination of primes you try out at each step will result in a certain number k. A crucial observation is that the higher exponent of that number k will be 1, because we’re trying combinations of different primes. Another crucial observation is that this number k will be seen times in total. Finally, each time we see it, it will contribute by to the final answer (or if the amount of primes is odd).
    • Knowing all this, we can precalculate a lot of stuff and then solve each test case in O(N). We should precalculate the amount of prime factors of every number in the range [1, 106] (this can be done with a simple sieve), and we should cross out numbers that have some prime with an exponent higher than 1 (in other words, multiples of some square). Once we have precalculated all that, we simply iterate from 1 to N and for every number x that we didn’t cross out, we add (or subtract) to our answer.
    • Final observations: We should add 2 to our answer (the two borders). If N = 0, the answer is 1, except M = 0 too, in which case the answer is 0.

Light OJ: 1267 – Points in Rectangle (II)

0

Problem Link: http://www.lightoj.com/volume_showproblem.php?problem=1267

Solution Idea:

This problem is similar to Codeforces gym 101484: B. Nicoleta’s Cleaning. We need a line sweep technique and some data structure to solve this problem. We need to convert each rectangle to opening and closing with respect to its x coordinates. Then we need to sort all points and open and close together. then for each opening element we need to count how many points are before opening point let is is X and for each closing, we need to count how many points are before and on the closing point in the range, lower y coordinate to upper y coordinate let it is Y. Then the number of points inside the rectangle is Y-X. For each given point we need to update it when we find it through scan line in x coordinate of it.

Problem Link : http://codeforces.com/gym/101484/problem/B

Solution Idea:

    To solve this problem we need line sweep technique and some data structure. At first convert each rectangle in two element with respect to it x coordinate which both x coordinate have same y coordinates. Now call first x point opening and 2nd x point closing of a rectangle. Now take a array of custom data type. and store every opening and closing of rectangles and the query points and sort the the array in the basis of x coordinate of each element and in case of a tie take closing element first then query point and then opening point.

    Now run a loop on the x axis and update every range by 1 if we find a opening and by -1 if we find a closing and if we find a query point just query the value of that point.

    Handle the boundary condition carefully.

Hackerrank: Solve the Queries!

Problem Link : https://www.hackerrank.com/contests/womens-codesprint-4/challenges/solve-the-queries

Solution Idea:

    The main observation in this problem is the given numbers are <=100 and there are 25 prime number less than 100. As we need to answer whether a range multiplication is multiple of another range multiplication or not.

    We know when we multiply two number their prime power is added. For example 12*18 = (2^2 * 3^1) * (2^1 * 3^2)
    = (2^(2+1) * 3^(1+2))
    = (2^3 * 3^3)
    = 216

    So we can store prime factors of every given number in each segment tree leaf. And while merging two leaf node we need to add each prime power between two two leafs. So a node in the segment tree hold the information about the nubmer in the subtree of this node has how many ith prime divisor.

    Now for each query we can get the power factor of each range from the segment tree and check whether they divides or not and produce the required answer from this prime factors.

Hackerrank: Lexicographically Smaller or Equal Strings

0

Problem Link : https://www.hackerrank.com/contests/womens-codesprint-4/challenges/lexicographically-smaller-or-equal-strings

Solution Idea:

    This problem is an example of basic merge sort tree problem. Merge Sort tree is a segment tree in which every node contains a vector. In this problem we can store string in every leaf node of segment tree as the size of the string is <=15. And while merging two leaf node we will merge them in sorted order. Now as the vectors of every node in the segment tree is sorted we can apply binary search on segment tree node to get how many string is lexicographically smaller than the given string.

    So after building merge sort tree we can easily answer every query using binary search.

    If you want to learn some wonderful application of segment tree or merge sort tree you can see this article.
