We can try out all of the possible starting digits, seeing if we will go out of bounds by repeating the same movements. If it is valid and different from the correct one, we output "NO", otherwise we just output "YES".

700B: B. Mike and Shortcuts

We can build a complete graph where the cost of going from point i to point j if |i - j| if a_i! = j and 1 if a_i = j.The we can find the shortest path from point 1 to point i.One optimisation is using the fact that there is no need to go from point i to point j if j ≠ s[i],j ≠ i - 1,j ≠ i + 1 so we can add only edges (i, i + 1),(i, i - 1),(i, s[i]) with cost 1 and then run a bfs to find the shortest path for each point i.

You can also solve the problem by taking the best answer from left and from the right and because a_i ≤ a_i + 1 then we can just iterate for each i form 1 to n and get the best answer from left and maintain a deque with best answer from right.

Complexity is O(N).

C. Mike and Chocolate Thieves

Author:danilka.pro,I_Love_Tina

Developed:I_Love_Tina,ThatMathGuy

Suppose we want to find the number of ways for a fixed n.

Let a, b, c, d ( 0 < a < b < c < d ≤ n ) be the number of chocolates the thieves stole. By our condition, they have the form b = ak, c = ak², d = ak³,where k is a positive integer. We can notice that $\text{[math]}$ , so for each k we can count how many a satisfy the conditions 0 < a < ak < ak² < ak³ ≤ n, their number is $\text{[math]}$ . Considering this, the final answer is $\text{[math]}$ .

Notice that this expression is non-decreasing as n grows, so we can run a binary search for n.

Total complexity: Time ~ $\text{[math]}$ , Space: O(1).

C++ code


ll get(ll x)
{
    ll ans = 0;
    for (int i = 2;1ll * i * i * i <= x;++i)
        ans += x / (1ll * i * i * i);
    return ans;
}
int main(void)
{
    ll m;
    fi>>m;
    ll n = 0;
    for (ll k = 1ll << 60;k;k /= 2)
        if (n + k <= 1e16 && get(n+k) < m) n += k;
    ++n;
    if (get(n) == m) fo << n << '\n';
    else fo << "-1\n";

D. Friends and Subsequences

Author:I_Love_Tina

Developed:I_Love_Tina,ThatMathGuy

First of all it is easy to see that if we fix l then have $\text{[math]}$ . So we can just use binary search to find the smallest index r_min and biggest index r_max that satisfy the equality and add r_max - r_min + 1 to our answer. To find the min and max values on a segment [l, r] we can use a simple Segment Tree or a Range-Minimum Query data structure.

The complexity is $\text{[math]}$ time and $\text{[math]}$ space.

E. Mike and Geometry Problem

Author:I_Love_Tina

Developed:I_Love_Tina,ThatMathGuy

Let define the following propriety:if the point i is intersected by p segments then in our sum it will be counted $\text{[math]}$ times,so our task reduce to calculate how many points is intersected by i intervals 1 ≤ i ≤ n.Let dp[i] be the number of points intersected by i intervals.Then our answer will be $\text{[math]}$ . We can easily calculate array dp using a map and partial sum trick.

The complexity and memory is $\text{[math]}$ and O(n).
