1. [5 pts] Draw the recursion tree (see Fig 2.5, page 38 in the book for an example) for the recurrence:
T(n) = θ(1) if n = 1
= 2T(n/2) + n2 if n > 1

Homework 2
2. [2 pts] Use the tree from Problem 1 to guess a solution to the recurrence.
3. [5 pts] Use the substitution method to solve the recurrence based on your guess in Problem 2.
4. [5 pts] Use the Master Method to solve the recurrence in Problem 1.

Homework 2
5. [5 pts] Use MERGE-SORT algorithm (available on Page 34 in textbook) to sort the following list:
5 8 2 1 6 6 4 2 3
Show the steps (One example is illustrated in Fig 2.4 on Page 35 in the textbook).

Homework 2
6. [7 pts] Design a 3-way merge sort algorithm, which divides the given array into three equal parts,
recursively sorts each part, then merges the results. In the main MergeSort3(A,p,r) algorithm,
you may assume the existence of an appropriate Merge3(A,p,q1,q2,r) linear-time ((n))
algorithm. Provide the pseudocode for the main algorithm (but not for the Merge3 helper). Don't forget
to properly handle the base case!
MergeSort3(A,p,r)
7. [3 pts] Give a recurrence relation T(n) for your solution to Problem 6.
8. [3 pts] Use the Master Method to solve the recurrence you gave in Problem 7.

Homework 2
9. [3 pts] Given the following input array [40, 10, 30, 80, 5, 60] show as a “heap” (in binary tree form). Note
that this initial “heap” may not satisfy the max-heap property.
10. [5 pts] Convert the heap in Problem 9 into a maximum-heap. Show each step of BUILD-MAX-HEAP
(including marking the node i in each step, similar to Figure 6.3, page 158).

Homework 2
11. [7 pts] Show HEAPSORT on the final maximum-heap from Problem 9 (i.e., skip line 1 of the algorithm that
calls BUILD-MAX-HEAP). Show each step (including marking the node i in each step, similar to Figure 6.4,
page 161).
