1737F - Ela and Prime GCD
Author: blobugh
Observation: Assume that x is composite number and divisor of n. Among all the multiples of x, the number of the divisor of n must be less than or equal to m/2.
First, factorize n. Assume that w is divisor of n. If w is in the form of a^4, a^3b^2, or a^2b^2c^2, it can be proved that there is no answer. Otherwise, there can be two cases.
If the possible maximum exponent of prime factor is 2, place the divisors like this: 1 a^2b^2 b a^2b b^2 ab a^2 ab^2 a / 1 a^2 a. And expand the sequence as follows:
- Repeat the current sequence twice — 1 a^2b^2 b a^2b b^2 ab a^2 ab^2 a 1 a^2b^2 b a^2b b^2 ab a^2 ab^2 a / 1 a^2 a 1 a^2 a.
- Multiply the odd-indexed elements of first half and the even-indexed elements of second half by the new prime factor. Index 1 is exception — 1 a^2b^2 bc a^2b b^2c ab a^2c ab^2 ac c a^2b^2c b a^2bc b^2 abc a^2 ab^2c a / 1 a^2 ab b a^2b a.
- If more prime factor exists, jump to "Otherwise".
Otherwise, place the divisors like this: 1 a^3 a a^2 / 1 a. Now the exponents of other prime factors are all 1, and we can expand the sequence as follows:
- Repeat the current sequence twice — 1 a^3 a a^2 1 a^3 a a^2 / 1 a 1 a.
- Multiply the even-indexed elements of first half and the odd-indexed elements of second half by the new prime factor — 1 a^3b a a^2b b a^3 ab a^2 / 1 ab b a. 3-1. If the maximum exponent is 3, swap a and b — 1 a^3b b a^2b a a^3 ab a^2 3-2. Otherwise, swap b and ab — 1 b ab a.
Like this, we can expand the sequence
