    Umm... right now it can't be seen in english, which I believe most of us need, it would be great to show it like this: [problem code] [english name] / [russian name]

    A little bit late ;-) Yes, it is possible to solve it with a segment tree. But instead of updating a single value and querying for ranges, you have to invert it so that you can modify an interval and get access to each element. Additionally you have to make sure that you insert the fights in the reversed order, otherwise some fights will overwrite others. Here is my implementation: 23198751

Shouldn't 292E — Copying Data be under the "Lazy Propagation" section?

If not, how to solve this problem using just classic segment tree?

Nice list, by the way.

    1 Let's use coordinate compression on a[i]. Then we have all the a[i] in the range (0, N].

    2 Let's create new array b[MAXN].

    b[i] — amount of j what a [j] > a [i] and j < i.

    It can be done with Fenwick or Segment tree.

    for (int i = 1; i <= n; i++){
      b [i] = get (a[i] + 1, n);
      upd(a [i], 1); 
    }
    

    3 Answer will be sum of d [i].

    d[i] — sum of all b [j] what j < i and a [j] > a [i].

    for (int i = 1; i <= n; i++){
      d[i] = get (a[i] + 1, n);
      upd(a [i], b [i]);
    }

Has anyone solved 375D — Trees and Queries ? It is the last problem mentioned in the Segment Tree and Tree section?

My approach — I flattened the tree with Euler tour and I couldn't figure out the way to compute the answer with MO's algorithm. How with a change in k, can I get a current query answer from my past queries?? Any suggestion or external references are appreciated

    I've solved this problem using MO's algorithm. First I've transformed the given tree into an array based on traversal order. Two index for every node. One for starting time another for finishing time. Within the segment lies the others vertexes of it's subgraph Then based on query nodes, I've a range for left and right. Then I ordered them in MO's ordering. In the MO's for add and remove function, I used two counter array. One for counting the appearances of the colors. And number of appearances of number of colors
