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.

f (n/b) Idea of master theorem f (n/b)   (1) … Recursion tree: … f (n)f (n) a f (n/b 2 ) … a h = log b n f (n)f (n) a f (n/b) a 2 f (n/b 2 ) … #leaves = a h = a log b n = n log b a n log b a   (1)

Three common cases Compare f (n) with n log b a : 1. f (n) = O(n log b a –  ) for some constant  > 0. f (n) grows polynomially slower than n log b a (by an n  factor). Solution: T(n) =  (n log b a ).

f (n/b) Idea of master theorem f (n/b)   (1) … Recursion tree: … f (n)f (n) a f (n/b 2 ) … a h = log b n f (n)f (n) a f (n/b) a 2 f (n/b 2 ) … n log b a   (1) C ASE 1: The weight increases geometrically from the root to the leaves. The leaves hold a constant fraction of the total weight.  (n log b a )

Three common cases Compare f (n) with n log b a : 2. f (n) =  (n log b a ) f (n) and n log b a grow at similar rates. Solution: T(n) =  (n log b a lg n).

f (n/b) Idea of master theorem f (n/b)   (1) … Recursion tree: … f (n)f (n) a f (n/b 2 ) … a h = log b n f (n)f (n) a f (n/b) a 2 f (n/b 2 ) … n log b a   (1) C ASE 2: The weight is approximately the same on each of the log b n levels.  (n log b a lg n)

Three common cases (cont.) Compare f (n) with n log b a : 3. f (n) =  (n log b a +  ) for some constant  > 0. f (n) grows polynomially faster than n log b a (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) ).

f (n/b) Idea of master theorem f (n/b)   (1) … Recursion tree: … f (n)f (n) a f (n/b 2 ) … a h = log b n f (n)f (n) a f (n/b) a 2 f (n/b 2 ) … n log b a   (1) C ASE 3: The weight decreases geometrically from the root to the leaves. The root holds a constant fraction of the total weight.  ( f (n))

Examples Ex. T(n) = 4T(n/2) + n a = 4, b = 2  n log b a = n 2 ; f (n) = n. C ASE 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 b a = n 2 ; f (n) = n 2. C ASE 2: f (n) =  (n 2 lg 0 n), that is, k = 0.  T(n) =  (n 2 lg n).

Examples Ex. T(n) = 4T(n/2) + n 3 a = 4, b = 2  n log b a = n 2 ; f (n) = n 3. C ASE 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 b a = n 2 ; f (n) = n 2 /lg n. Master method does not apply. In particular, for every constant  > 0, we have n   (lg n).
