- If we want to prove P = NP, we only need to pick up any one NPC problem and design a polynomial-time algorithm for the problem. If you want to prove P = NP, select one NPC problem based on your preference and describe your idea of a polynomial-time algorithm that solves the problem. It does not have to be a formal algorithm or pseudo-code, a description of your idea of designing such an algorithm would be fine.arrow_forwardGiven a set S of n planar points, construct an efficient algorithm to determine whether or not there exist three points in S that are collinear. Hint: While there are Θ(n3) triples of members of S, you should be able to construct an algorithm that runs in o(n3) sequential time.arrow_forwardConsider a function f: N → N that represents the amount of work done by some algorithm as follow: f(n) = {(1 if n is oddn if n is even)┤ Prove or disprove. f(n) is O(n).

- An NP-complete problem is a fascinating kind of problem because till now no one has discovered the polynomial-time algorithm to solve it and also no one has proved that no polynomial-time algorithm can exist for any NP-complete problem. It is an open research problem since it was first posed in 1971 to prove P#NP. The NxN Queens problem can be summarized as follows: putting N chess queens on an N×N chessboard such that none of them is able to attack any other queen using the standard chess queen's moves (row-column- diagonal). Thus, a solution requires that no two queens share the same row, column, or diagonal. Solutions exist only for N = 1 or N 2 4. Use the given function below to test whether a queen is attacked by another or not. You are not allowed to use any other code to check if a queen is safe. Implement a backtracking solution for the algorithm in Java that finds all possible solutions for N queens and measure the execution time it takes for N=4 to 12 and compare them…arrow_forwardConsider a function f: N → N that represents the amount of work done by some algorithm as follow: f(n) = {(1 if n is oddn if n is even)┤ A. Prove or disprove. f(n) is O(n).arrow_forwardGiven an n-element array X of integers, Algorithm A executes an O(n) time computation for each even number in X and an O(log-n) time computation for each odd number in X.

- Given an n-element sequence of integers, an algorithm executes an O(n)-time computation for each even number in the sequence, and an O(logn)-time computation for each odd number in the sequence. What are the best-case and worst-case running times of this algorithm? Why? Show with proper notations.arrow_forwardProve that the sum of the first n odd positive integers is n2. In other words, show that 1 + 3 + 5 + .... + (2n + 1) = (n + 1)2 for all n ∈ N.arrow_forwardDetermine whether the proposed definition isa valid recursive definition of a function f from the setof nonnegative integers to the set of integers. If f is welldefined, find a formula for f(n) when n is a nonnegativeinteger and prove that your formula is valid. Do NOT use proofs. f(0) = 1, f(n) = −f(n − 1) for n ≥ 1arrow_forward
