Let T = (V,E) be a tree, and letr, r′ ∈ V be any two nodes.
Prove that the height of the rooted tree (T, r) is at most twice
the height of the rooted tree (T, r′).
ii. Let G = (V, E) be a tree. Prove G has |V | − 1 edges using
strong induction. Hint: In the inductive step, choose an edge (u,
v) and partition the set vertices into two subtrees, those that are
reachable from u without traversing (u, v) and those that are
reachable from v without traversing (u, v). You will have to reason
why these subtrees are distinct subgraphs of G.

a.) Let T be a binary tree with n nodes.
Define the lowest common ancestor
(LCA) between two nodes v and w
as the lowest node in T that has both v and w as
descendants. Given two nodes v and w, write an
efficient algorithm, LCA(v, w), for finding the LCA of
v and w. Note: A node is a descendant of itself
and v.depth gives a depth of a node
v.
b.) What is the running time of your...
Let G = (V, E) be a directed graph, with source s ∈ V, sink t ∈
V, and nonnegative edge capacities {ce}. Give a polynomial-time
algorithm to decide whether G has a unique minimum s-t cut (i.e.,
an s-t of capacity strictly less than that of all other s-t
cuts).
1. Let V and W be vector spaces over R.
a) Show that if T: V → W and S : V → W are both linear
transformations, then the map S + T : V → W given by (S + T)(v) =
S(v) + T(v) is also a linear transformation.
b) Show that if R: V → W is a linear transformation and λ ∈ R,
then the map λR: V → W is given by (λR)(v) =...

B) = sup A − inf B and inf(A − B) = inf A − sup B

Let T : V → V be a linear map. A vector v ∈ V is called a fixed
point of T if Tv = v. For example, 0 is a fixed point for every
linear map T. Show that 1 is an eigenvalue of T if and only if T
has nonzero fixed points, and that these nonzero fixed points are
the eigenvectors of T corresponding to eigenvalue 1
Create a kD tree with:
x-nodes and y-nodes -- and maintain the
following two properties:
The children of an x-node are y-nodes
The children of a y-node are x-nodes
Each type of node uses a different comparison to order points.
This causes different levels of the tree to compare points
differently, using the following rules:
For every x-node:
All descendants in the left subtree have a smaller
x-coordinate than the point stored at the node. Visually,
all descendant points are...
If G = (V, E) is a graph and x ∈ V , let G \ x be the graph
whose vertex set is V \ {x} and whose edges are those edges of G
that don’t contain x.
Show that every connected finite graph G = (V, E) with at least
two vertices has at least two vertices x1, x2 ∈ V such that G \ xi
is connected.
