# Question about Wald's example of a "derivative operator"

I am trying to study Wald's book on General Relativity. I thought the first two chapters were ok, but I'm completely stuck in chapter 3, on page 32 where he gives an example of a "derivative operator". I would very much appreciate some assistance in understanding this please.

He defined a "derivative operator", also known as a "covariant derivative", denoted $$\nabla$$ as a map that takes a $$(k, l)$$ tensor field to a $$(k, l + 1)$$ tensor field, that satisfies 5 properties.

Then, on page 32, he gives an example of such an operator:

Our first important task is to show that derivative operators exist. Let $$\psi$$ be a coordinate system and let $$\lbrace\partial/\partial x^\mu\rbrace$$ and $$\lbrace\mathrm{d} x^\mu\rbrace$$ be the associated coordinate bases. Then in the region covered by these coordinates we may define a derivative operators, $$\partial_a$$, called an ordinary derivative, as follows. For any smooth tensor field $$T^{a_1 \cdots a_k}{}_{b_1 \cdots b_l}$$ we take its components $$T^{\mu_1 \cdots \mu_k}{}_{\nu_1 \cdots \nu_l}$$ in this coordinate basis and define $$\partial_c T^{a_1 \cdots a_k}{}_{b_1 \cdots b_l}$$ to be the tensor whose components in this coordinate basis are the partial derivatives $$\partial\left(T^{\mu_1 \cdots \mu_k}{}_{\nu_1 \cdots \nu_l}\right)/\partial x^\sigma$$. All five conditions follow immediately from the standard properties of partial derivatives. Indeed, by the equality of mixed partial derivatives, the fifth condition holds for all tensor fields, not just scalar fields. Thus, given a coordinate system $$\psi$$, we can construct an associated derivative operator $$\partial_a$$. Of course, a different choice of coordinate system $$\psi'$$ will yield a different derivative operator $$\partial'_a$$, that is, the components of the tensor $$\partial_c T^{a_1 \cdots a_k}{}_{b_1 \cdots b_l}$$ in the new (primed) coordinates will not be equal to the partial derivatives of the primed components of $$T^{a_1 \cdots a_k}{}_{b_1 \cdots b_l}$$ with respect to the primed coordinates. Thus, a given ordinary derivative operator is coordinate dependent, i.e., it is not naturally associated with the structure of the manifold.

I don't follow how this object he has defined is a tensor.

Suppose, for brevity that the $$(k, l)$$ tensor is just a $$(1,1)$$ tensor. He is thus defining an object $$\partial_cT^a_{ \ \ \ \ b}$$. This should be a $$(1, 2)$$ tensor.

We are to pick some coordinate system and define the tensor $$\partial_cT^a_{ \ \ \ \ b}$$ to be the tensor that in some particular coordinates has components $$\frac{\partial}{\partial x^{\sigma}}T^{\mu}_{ \ \ \ \ \nu}$$. In other words, the full tensor should be $$\left( \frac{\partial}{\partial x^{\sigma}}T^{\mu}_{ \ \ \ \ \nu}\right) \frac{\partial}{\partial x^{\mu}} \otimes dx^{\nu}\otimes dx^{\sigma}$$.

But I don't see how this is a tensor. He doesn't get to just define the object in some coordinate system and call it a tensor. And he can't just declare that its components, by definition, transform however they need to, so that the object is a tensor. This is because he has defined the object in terms of both the partial derivative and a legitimate tensor, both of which we already know the transformation properties of. He seems to basically acknowledge this point towards the end of the above paragraph.

So, given all this, in what sense is this object he is calling a tensor actually a tensor?

## End of original question.

EDIT: Thank you for the answers so far, which I am in the process of looking through. I am editing this postt to include a reply to one of the below answers.

@Michael Seifert. I tried to write a comment to your answer, but my comment was too long..

Thank you, but I still don't understand.

I am fine with the two common definitions of tensors. One, as you said, maybe favored by Mathematicians, and used is by Wald, and also is the one I prefer, saying (for example a (1,1) tensor) is a multilinear map from the product of $$V^* \times V$$ into $$\mathbb{R}$$. This is clearly basis independent, since it does not refer to a basis. But we then may pick a basis. And then we may want to change to a different basis. In order for the tensor to be invariant, the particular basis transformation requires the tensor components to transform a particular way. This leads to the tensor component transformation law. This is also explained in Wald.

As you mention, some people would ignore the basis, and just define a tensor as an object that transforms according to this tensor transformation law. So, what the above person would call a tensor component, this person would call a tensor. I think I understand this issue and the distinction.

However, I don't see how Wald escapes here, since while he is using the abstract coordinate invariant way to define a tensor. In, in order for this to be a well-defined map, the components must satisfy the tensor component transformation law - and this example he gave doesn't.

No?

• Fix a coordinate patch. Is $\partial_\mu \otimes dx^\nu \otimes dx^\sigma$ (for given values of the indices) a tensor? Obviously yes. Here, Wald is simply considering a linear combination of tensors. That is a tensor as well because tensors of definite kind define a vector space. Jun 11 at 13:19
• What it is false is that the tensor definet that way has the same form (derivatives of components) in every coordinate system. Jun 11 at 13:25

He doesn't get to just define the object in some coordinate system and call it a tensor. And he can't just declare that its components, by definition, transform however they need to, so that the object is a tensor.

Actually, he can. And that's precisely what he does. The trick is: it is only a partial derivative in one specific choice of coordinates. In other coordinate systems, it will not be a partial derivative. This is very uncommon in GR textbooks and I don't recall seeing this convention anywhere else, but it is perfectly valid. It is similar to how we often prescribe tensors as their components in one coordinate system and just transform them appropriately when changing to other systems.

The thing is that instead of letting the partial derivative be a partial derivative in all coordinate systems, he ties it to a specific choice of coordinate system. It is the partial derivative in, e.g., Cartesian coordinates, but it won't be the partial derivative in spherical coordinates.

He also does a similar thing with Christoffel symbols, which, in his text, are tensors.

An explicit example may help. Consider the manifold $$\mathbb R^2$$ and a vector field $$V$$ which, in a Cartesian coordinate system $$(x,y)$$, takes the form $$V = -y\frac{\partial}{\partial x} + x\frac{\partial}{\partial y}$$ In other words, the components of $$V$$ are $$V^x= -y$$ and $$V^y = x$$. Now I define the following object:

$$T = -\left(\mathrm dy \otimes \frac{\partial}{\partial x}\right)+\left(\mathrm dx\otimes\frac{\partial}{\partial y}\right)$$ which has components $$T_x^{\ \ x}= 0,T_y^{\ \ x}=-1,T_x^{\ \ y}=1,T_y^{\ \ y}=0$$. In more condensed notation, $$T_i^{ \ \ j}= \partial_i V^j$$.

The question now becomes, is $$T$$ a tensor field? The answer given by Wald is yes, of course, if we define it to be. It's entirely valid to choose a coordinate system, define any arbitrary set of components for a tensor in that coordinate system, then "lift" the result back up to the manifold level (after all, this is precisely what I've done to define $$V$$ in the first place). In this case, the set of components we've chosen are simply the partial derivatives of the components of $$V$$ with respect to the coordinates $$(x,y)$$.

However, if I change to a new chart, the components of $$T$$ will no longer be equal to the components of $$V$$ with respect the coordinates. For example, if I go to polar coordinates $$(r,\theta)$$, we would have $$\matrix{\frac{\partial}{\partial x} \rightarrow\cos(\theta)\frac{\partial}{\partial r} -\frac{\sin(\theta)}{r}\frac{\partial}{\partial \theta} & \frac{\partial}{\partial y} \rightarrow \sin(\theta)\frac{\partial}{\partial r} + \frac{\cos(\theta)}{r}\frac{\partial}{\partial \theta} \\ \mathrm dx \rightarrow \cos(\theta) \mathrm dr - r\sin(\theta) \mathrm d\theta & \mathrm dy \rightarrow \sin(\theta) \mathrm dr + r\cos(\theta) \mathrm d\theta}$$

and so our vector field becomes $$V = \frac{\partial}{\partial \theta}$$ while our tensor field becomes $$T = \frac{1}{r}\left(\mathrm dr\otimes \frac{\partial}{\partial \theta}\right) - r\left(\mathrm d\theta\otimes \frac{\partial}{\partial r}\right)$$

Obviously in polar coordinates, the components of $$T$$ are not the partial derivatives of the components of $$V$$ (which are constant). This is the point Wald is making - given any tensor field $$V$$, you may go to a coordinate chart, take the partial derivatives of its components in that chart, and then define the result to be the components of a new tensor $$T$$. However, under a change of chart this relationship between $$T$$ and $$V$$ will change; the components of $$T$$ are only the derivatives of the components of $$V$$ in the chart you used to define $$T$$ in the first place.

Wald's definition of a tensor is not based on their coordinate transformation laws. Instead, it is akin to how mathematicians define a tensor. Earlier in Chapter 1 (I think), he defines a tensor to be a multi-linear map from some product of $$V$$ and $$V^*$$ to the real numbers. In this sense, $$\partial_c T^{a} {}_b$$ is a tensor: if we contract it with a dual vector $$u_a$$ and two vectors $$v^b$$ and $$w^c$$, then we get a real number, so this is a valid map from $$V^* \otimes V \otimes V \to \mathbb{R}$$. It's also not too hard to see that this map is linear. So under this definition, it's a tensor.

By defining a tensor this way, Wald avoids the seemingly vacuous notion that "a tensor is something that transforms like a tensor". Under this definition, it is perfectly possible to define a tensor in a way that depends on some underlying structure, such as a coordinate system.

It does lead to some statements that take some getting used to if you're used to the idea that a tensor's definition is based on its transformation properties, though. For example, under this approach, the Christoffel "symbols" are actually tensors, since they define a linear map from $$V \otimes V \otimes V^* \to \mathbb{R}$$. Wald discusses this briefly later in Chapter 3, saying that the Christoffels $$\Gamma^c {}_{ab}$$ are a tensor defining the "difference" between a particular coordinate derivative operator $$\partial_a$$ and the covariant derivative operator $$\nabla_a$$. If we change coordinates from the original coordinate system $$\{x^a\}$$ to a "primed" system $$\{{x'}^a\}$$, then the Christoffel tensor field $${\Gamma'}^c {}_{ab}$$ associated with this coordinate system is different from $${\Gamma}^c {}_{ab}$$. This explains why applying a coordinate transformation to the coordinate components of $${\Gamma}^c {}_{ab}$$ in the $$\{x^a\}$$ does not yield the coordinate components of $${\Gamma'}^c {}_{ab}$$ in the $$\{{x'}^a\}$$ system: $${\Gamma}^c {}_{ab}$$ and $${\Gamma'}^c {}_{ab}$$ are different tensor fields.

• I agree with your answer, but I would not say that the definition of tensor in terms of families of components with a certain transformation law is vacuous. It is actually equivalent to the definition in terms of multi linear maps you used in your answer. Jun 11 at 13:28
• @ValterMoretti True. (I've added a word to soften the statement.) That said, the notion that "a tensor is a family of components with a certain transformation law" is a slippery notion to define when we consider tensors that themselves depend on coordinate systems (as we see here with partial derivatives of tensors or Christoffel tensors). At a later date I will try to come back to expand on that idea further. Jun 11 at 13:35

This algorithm’s speed can be leaps and bounds better than linear search, but not without a cost: binary search can only be used on data that is already sorted. BST is a collection of nodes arranged in a way where they maintain BST properties. Also, you will find working examples of Binary Search Tree in C, C++, Java, and Python. Consider any 2 points $m_1$, and $m_2$ in this interval: $l < m_1 < m_2 < r$. We didn't impose any restrictions on the choice of points $m_1$ and $m_2$. Repeatedly check until the value is found or the interval is empty. Also, the number of iterations doesn't depend on the values of $l$ and $r$, so the number of iterations corresponds to the required relative error. Although linear search algorithm is the most fundamental search algorithm and probably the first that most developers will learn, Binary … Now, we get one of three options: The desired maximum can not be located on the left side of $m_1$, i.e. on the interval $[l, m_1]$, since either both points $m_1$ and $m_2$ or just $m_1$ belong to the area where the function increases. However, this approach is not practical for large a or n. ab+c=ab⋅ac and a2b=ab⋅ab=(ab)2. If $m_1$ and $m_2$ are chosen to be closer to each other, the convergence rate will increase slightly.

Following is a pictorial representation of BST − We observe that the root node key (27) has all less-valued keys on the left sub-tree and the higher valued keys on the right sub-tree. In its simplest form, binary search is used to quickly find a value in a sorted sequence (consider a sequence an ordinary array for now). At each step, the algorithm compares the median value in the search space to the target value. find the values of $f(m_1)$ and $f(m_2)$. Binary search only works on sorted data structures. The task is to find the maximum of function $f(x)$ on the interval $[l, r]$. This is a numerical method, so we can assume that after that the function reaches its maximum at all points of the last interval $[l, r]$. The binary search algorithm can be classified as a dichotomies divide-and-conquer search algorithm and executes in logarithmic time.

This search algorithm works on the principle of divide and conquer. The binary search algorithm is conceptually simple. Required fields are marked *. Begin with an interval covering the whole array. Eventually, its length will be less than a certain pre-defined constant (accuracy), and the process can be stopped. Constrained algorithms. This was not an algorithm bug as is purported on this page - and I feel strongly that this is unjust. A binary search tree is a data structure that quickly allows us to maintain a sorted list of numbers. Binary Search is used with sorted array or list. Binary search is a fast search algorithm with run-time complexity of Ο (log n). It is one of the Divide and conquer algorithms types, where in each step, it halves the number of elements it has to search, making the average time complexity to O (log n). But notice, that this uses three times more memory than a normal Merge Sort Tree, which already uses a lot of memory ($O(n \log n)$). The function strictly decreases first, reaches a minimum, and then strictly increases. It's time complexity of O (log n) makes it very fast as compared to other sorting algorithms. Binary search can be implemented only on a sorted list of items. Binary Search is a searching algorithm for finding an element's position in a sorted array. uHunt Chapter 3 has six starred problems, and many more problems in total, on the topic of binary search. This algorithm is much more efficient compared to linear search algorithm. comp Binary function that accepts two arguments of the type pointed by ForwardIterator (and of type T), and returns a value convertible to bool. We are given a function $f(x)$ which is unimodal on an interval $[l, r]$. If the element to search is present in the list, then we print its location. Binary Search is a divide and conquer algorithm. For this algorithm to work properly, the data collection should be in the sorted form. Thus, the search space is reduced to $[m_1, m_2]$. on the interval [l,m1], since either both points m1 and m2 or just m1 belong to the area where the function increases. To simplify the code, this case can be combined with any of the previous cases. This situation is symmetrical to the previous one: the maximum can not be located on the right side of $m_2$, i.e. If the array isn't sorted, you must sort it using a sorting technique such as merge sort. Binary Exponentiation; Euclidean algorithm for computing the greatest common divisor; Extended Euclidean Algorithm; Linear Diophantine Equations; Fibonacci Numbers; Prime numbers. Typically, in most programming challenges the error limit is ${10}^{-6}$ and thus 200 - 300 iterations are sufficient. This video is a part of HackerRank's Cracking The Coding Interview Tutorial with Gayle Laakmann McDowell. Without loss of generality, we can take $f(l)$ as the return value. Now, we get one of three options: 1. f(m1) eps, we can select a constant number of iterations as a stopping criterion. template < class ForwardIt, class T > bool binary_search (ForwardIt first, ForwardIt last, const T & value) {first = std:: lower_bound (first, last, value); return (! We evaluate the function at m1 and m2, i.e. on the interval $[m_2, r]$, and the search space is reduced to the segment $[l, m_2]$. The second scenario is completely symmetrical to the first. Binary Search vs. Today we will discuss the Binary Search Algorithm. Binary Search Algorithm is a very efficient technique for searching but it needs some order on which partition of the array will occur. Once $(r - l) < 3$, the remaining pool of candidate points $(l, l + 1, \ldots, r)$ needs to be checked to find the point which produces the maximum value $f(x)$. The most common way is to choose the points so that they divide the interval $[l, r]$ into three equal parts. Thus, based on the comparison of the values in the two inner points, we can replace the current interval $[l, r]$ with a new, shorter interval $[l^\prime, r^\prime]$. Your email address will not be published. $$T(n) = T({2n}/{3}) + 1 = \Theta(\log n)$$. The program assumes that the input numbers are in ascending order. Based on the compariso… Repeatedly applying the described procedure to the interval, we can get an arbitrarily short interval. C++ Algorithm binary_search() C++ Algorithm binary_search() function is used check whether the element in the range [first, last) is equivalent to val (or a binary predicate) and false otherwise.. While searching, the desired key is compared to the keys in BST and if found, the associated value is retrieved. If we get a match, we return the index of the middle element. The binary search algorithm check was fine. ( … Let's write n in base 2, for example:313=311012=38⋅34⋅31 Since the number n has exactly ⌊log2n⌋+1 digits in base 2, we only need to perform O(logn) multiplications, if we know the powers a1,a2,a4,a8,…,a⌊logn⌋. Binary search algorithm falls under the category of interval search algorithms. Binary search works on sorted arrays. Binary search algorithm Algorithm. Given below are the steps/procedures of the Binary Search algorithm. Binary search is a fast search algorithm with run-time complexity of Ο (log n). We can see that either both of these points belong to the area where the value of the function is maximized, or $m_1$ is in the area of increasing values and $m_2$ is in the area of descending values (here we used the strictness of function increasing/decreasing). We can use binary search to reduce the number of comparisons in normal insertion sort. If … This search algorithm works on the principle of divide and conquer. We first need to calculate the middle element in the list and then compare the element we are searching with this middle element. Binary Search is a method to find the required element in a sorted array by repeatedly halving the array and searching in the half. If you want to solve them, it helps to have a firm grasp of how that algorithm works. If the value of the search key is less than the item in the middle of the interval, narrow the interval to the lower half. The idea of binary exponentiation is, that we split the work using the binary representation of the exponent. Linear Search. Binary Search : In computer science, a binary search or half-interval search algorithm finds the position of a target value within a sorted array. To calculate middle element we use the formula: The difference occurs in the stopping criterion of the algorithm. 1. We’ll call the sought value the target value for clarity.

TIMUS 1913 Titan Ruins: Alignment of Forces. This algorithm’s speed can be leaps and bounds better than linear search, but not without a cost: binary search can only be used on data that is already sorted. BST is a collection of nodes arranged in a way where they maintain BST properties. Also, you will find working examples of Binary Search Tree in C, C++, Java, and Python. Consider any 2 points$m_1$, and$m_2$in this interval:$l < m_1 < m_2 < r$. We didn't impose any restrictions on the choice of points$m_1$and$m_2$. Repeatedly check until the value is found or the interval is empty. Also, the number of iterations doesn't depend on the values of$l$and$r$, so the number of iterations corresponds to the required relative error. Although linear search algorithm is the most fundamental search algorithm and probably the first that most developers will learn, Binary … Now, we get one of three options: The desired maximum can not be located on the left side of$m_1$, i.e. on the interval$[l, m_1]$, since either both points$m_1$and$m_2$or just$m_1$belong to the area where the function increases. However, this approach is not practical for large a or n. ab+c=ab⋅ac and a2b=ab⋅ab=(ab)2. If$m_1$and$m_2$are chosen to be closer to each other, the convergence rate will increase slightly. For a similar project, that translates the collection of articles into Portuguese, visit https://cp-algorithms-brasil.com. Following is a pictorial representation of BST − We observe that the root node key (27) has all less-valued keys on the left sub-tree and the higher valued keys on the right sub-tree. In its simplest form, binary search is used to quickly find a value in a sorted sequence (consider a sequence an ordinary array for now). At each step, the algorithm compares the median value in the search space to the target value. find the values of$f(m_1)$and$f(m_2)$. Binary search only works on sorted data structures. The task is to find the maximum of function$f(x)$on the interval$[l, r]$. This is a numerical method, so we can assume that after that the function reaches its maximum at all points of the last interval$[l, r]$. The binary search algorithm can be classified as a dichotomies divide-and-conquer search algorithm and executes in logarithmic time. The problem was that the index must be less than half the size of the variable used to store it (be it an integer, unsigned integer, or other). More precisely, the algorithm can be stated as foll… ... Search Operation. We can reduce it to O (log n) by using binary search. For this algorithm to work properly, the data collection should be in the sorted form. Binary search looks for a particular item … Raising a to the power of n is expressed naively as multiplication by a done n−1 times:an=a⋅a⋅…⋅a. Here eps is in fact the absolute error (not taking into account errors due to the inaccurate calculation of the function). [A]: Binary Search — Searching a sorted array by repeatedly dividing the search interval in half. Print out whether or not the number was in the array afterwards. This search algorithm works on the principle of divide and conquer. The binary search algorithm is conceptually simple. Required fields are marked *. Begin with an interval covering the whole array. Eventually, its length will be less than a certain pre-defined constant (accuracy), and the process can be stopped. Constrained algorithms. This was not an algorithm bug as is purported on this page - and I feel strongly that this is unjust. A binary search tree is a data structure that quickly allows us to maintain a sorted list of numbers. Binary Search is used with sorted array or list. Binary search is a fast search algorithm with run-time complexity of Ο (log n). It is one of the Divide and conquer algorithms types, where in each step, it halves the number of elements it has to search, making the average time complexity to O (log n). But notice, that this uses three times more memory than a normal Merge Sort Tree, which already uses a lot of memory ($O(n \log n)$). The function strictly decreases first, reaches a minimum, and then strictly increases. It's time complexity of O (log n) makes it very fast as compared to other sorting algorithms. Binary search can be implemented only on a sorted list of items. Binary Search is a searching algorithm for finding an element's position in a sorted array. uHunt Chapter 3 has six starred problems, and many more problems in total, on the topic of binary search. This algorithm is much more efficient compared to linear search algorithm. comp Binary function that accepts two arguments of the type pointed by ForwardIterator (and of type T), and returns a value convertible to bool. We are given a function$f(x)$which is unimodal on an interval$[l, r]$. If the element to search is present in the list, then we print its location. Binary Search is a divide and conquer algorithm. For this algorithm to work properly, the data collection should be in the sorted form. Thus, the search space is reduced to$[m_1, m_2]$. on the interval [l,m1], since either both points m1 and m2 or just m1 belong to the area where the function increases. To simplify the code, this case can be combined with any of the previous cases. This situation is symmetrical to the previous one: the maximum can not be located on the right side of$m_2$, i.e. If the array isn't sorted, you must sort it using a sorting technique such as merge sort. Binary Exponentiation; Euclidean algorithm for computing the greatest common divisor; Extended Euclidean Algorithm; Linear Diophantine Equations; Fibonacci Numbers; Prime numbers. Typically, in most programming challenges the error limit is${10}^{-6}$and thus 200 - 300 iterations are sufficient. This video is a part of HackerRank's Cracking The Coding Interview Tutorial with Gayle Laakmann McDowell. Without loss of generality, we can take$f(l)$as the return value. Now, we get one of three options: 1. f(m1) eps, we can select a constant number of iterations as a stopping criterion. template < class ForwardIt, class T > bool binary_search (ForwardIt first, ForwardIt last, const T & value) {first = std:: lower_bound (first, last, value); return (! We evaluate the function at m1 and m2, i.e. on the interval$[m_2, r]$, and the search space is reduced to the segment$[l, m_2]$. The second scenario is completely symmetrical to the first. Binary Search vs. Today we will discuss the Binary Search Algorithm. Binary Search Algorithm is a very efficient technique for searching but it needs some order on which partition of the array will occur. Once$(r - l) < 3$, the remaining pool of candidate points$(l, l + 1, \ldots, r)$needs to be checked to find the point which produces the maximum value$f(x)$. The most common way is to choose the points so that they divide the interval$[l, r]$into three equal parts. Thus, based on the comparison of the values in the two inner points, we can replace the current interval$[l, r]$with a new, shorter interval$[l^\prime, r^\prime]$. Your email address will not be published. $$T(n) = T({2n}/{3}) + 1 = \Theta(\log n)$$. The program assumes that the input numbers are in ascending order. Based on the compariso… Repeatedly applying the described procedure to the interval, we can get an arbitrarily short interval. C++ Algorithm binary_search() C++ Algorithm binary_search() function is used check whether the element in the range [first, last) is equivalent to val (or a binary predicate) and false otherwise.. While searching, the desired key is compared to the keys in BST and if found, the associated value is retrieved. If we get a match, we return the index of the middle element. The binary search algorithm check was fine. ( … Let's write n in base 2, for example:313=311012=38⋅34⋅31 Since the number n has exactly ⌊log2n⌋+1 digits in base 2, we only need to perform O(logn) multiplications, if we know the powers a1,a2,a4,a8,…,a⌊logn⌋. Binary search algorithm falls under the category of interval search algorithms. Binary search works on sorted arrays. Binary search algorithm Algorithm. Given below are the steps/procedures of the Binary Search algorithm. Binary search is a fast search algorithm with run-time complexity of Ο (log n). We can see that either both of these points belong to the area where the value of the function is maximized, or$m_1$is in the area of increasing values and$m_2$is in the area of descending values (here we used the strictness of function increasing/decreasing). We can use binary search to reduce the number of comparisons in normal insertion sort. If … This search algorithm works on the principle of divide and conquer. We first need to calculate the middle element in the list and then compare the element we are searching with this middle element. Binary Search is a method to find the required element in a sorted array by repeatedly halving the array and searching in the half. If you want to solve them, it helps to have a firm grasp of how that algorithm works. If the value of the search key is less than the item in the middle of the interval, narrow the interval to the lower half. The idea of binary exponentiation is, that we split the work using the binary representation of the exponent. Linear Search. Binary Search : In computer science, a binary search or half-interval search algorithm finds the position of a target value within a sorted array. To calculate middle element we use the formula: The difference occurs in the stopping criterion of the algorithm. 1. We’ll call the sought value the target value for clarity.

# cp algorithms binary search

Additionally, the return types of most algorithms have been changed to return all potentially useful … To summarize, as usual we touch $O(\log n)$ nodes during a query. The algorithm takes as input an unweighted graph and the id of the source vertex s. The input graph can be directed or undirected,it does not matter to the algorithm. Binary search only works on sorted data structures. Let's implement this algorithm in C, C++. In this approach, the element is always searched in the middle of a portion of an array. Otherwise narrow it to the upper half. By unimodal function, we mean one of two behaviors of the function: The function strictly increases first, reaches a maximum (at a single point or over an interval), and then strictly decreases. Each node has a key and an associated value. Binary Search Pseudocode We are given an input array that is supposed to be sorted in ascending order. Binary Insertion Sort uses binary search to find the proper location to insert the selected item at each iteration. The range [first, last) must satisfy all of the following conditions: Partitioned with respect to element < val or comp (element, val). Binary search can be significantly better than the linear search while talking about the time complexity of searching( given the array is sorted). In this article, we will assume the first scenario. A tree representing binary search. This choice will define the convergence rate and the accuracy of the implementation. In the root node we do a binary search, and in all other nodes we only do constant work. find the values of f(m1) and f(m2). In one iteration of the algorithm, the "ring offire" is expanded in width by one unit (hence the name of the algorithm). Then it … Learn the basics of binary search algorithm. The algorithm can be understood as a fire spreading on the graph: at the zeroth step only the source sis on fire. It can be visualized as follows: every time after evaluating the function at points $m_1$ and $m_2$, we are essentially ignoring about one third of the interval, either the left or right one. The search space is initially the entire sequence. Ternary search will have to stop when $(r - l) < 3$, because in that case we can no longer select $m_1$ and $m_2$ to be different from each other as well as from $l$ and $r$, and this can cause an infinite loop. The idea is to use Binary Search. It is also known as half-interval search or logarithmic search. The Binary Search Algorithm. The time complexity of binary search algorithm is O(Log n). Binary Search: Search a sorted array by repeatedly dividing the search interval in half. If the elements are not sorted already, we … Given the starting point of a range, the ending point of a range, and the "secret value", implement a binary search through a sorted integer array for a certain number. This is called the search space. "Please enter 10 elements ASCENDING order", Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window), Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window). For (1), T shall be a type supporting being compared with elements of the range [first,last) as either operand of operator<. Binary search in C language to find an element in a sorted array. If $f(x)$ takes integer parameter, the interval $[l, r]$ becomes discrete. Like all divide and conquer algorithms, Binary Search first divides a large array into two smaller sub-arrays and then recursively (or iteratively) operate the sub-arrays. This means the complexity for answering a query is $O(\log n)$. 5. 3. 2. f(m1)>f(m2)This situation is symmetrical to th… It works on a sorted array. Let us consider the problem of searching for a word in a dictionary. Thus the size of the search space is ${2n}/{3}$ of the original one. Begin with an interval covering the whole array.

# What happens if i cluster data with a distance metric, that is not a distance metric?

i stumbled upon a paper, that introduces a distance metric, which is then used to cluster data (https://doi.org/10.1137/1.9781611972795.35). I noticed however, that this "distance" violated at least one property of the mathematical definition of distance, namely $$dist(x,x) \neq 0$$ for some $$x$$. Additionally, I am pretty sure, that $$dist(x,y) < 0$$ for some $$x,y$$

I was wondering, what could go wrong when clustering data if theses properties of distances are violated? And what happens if other properties are violated such as symmetry or triangle inequality?

brainpy.math.random.beta(a, b, size=None, key=None)[source]#

Draw samples from a Beta distribution.

The Beta distribution is a special case of the Dirichlet distribution, and is related to the Gamma distribution. It has the probability distribution function

$f(x; a,b) = \frac{1}{B(\alpha, \beta)} x^{\alpha - 1} (1 - x)^{\beta - 1},$

where the normalization, B, is the beta function,

$B(\alpha, \beta) = \int_0^1 t^{\alpha - 1} (1 - t)^{\beta - 1} dt.$

It is often seen in Bayesian inference and order statistics.

Parameters:
• a (float or array_like of floats) – Alpha, positive (>0).

• b (float or array_like of floats) – Beta, positive (>0).

• size (int or tuple of ints, optional) – Output shape. If the given shape is, e.g., (m, n, k), then m * n * k samples are drawn. If size is None (default), a single value is returned if a and b are both scalars. Otherwise, np.broadcast(a, b).size samples are drawn.

Returns:

out – Drawn samples from the parameterized beta distribution.

Return type:

ndarray or scalar

## Chemistry: The Central Science (13th Edition)

Acid rain results from the presence of SO2 in the atmosphere. Rain water on descent from clouds to earth, got mixed with SO2, which leads to the production of Sulfurous and Sulfuric acids and the phenomenon is called acid rain. Chemical equation is as under: $H_{2}O + SO_{2} → H_{2}SO_{4}$

# Thread: L'Hospital's Rule Example with ln

1. ## L'Hospital's Rule Example with ln

$\lim x \rightarrow \infty[\dfrac{\ln x}{\sqrt{x}}]$

$\lim x \rightarrow \infty(\ln x)}(x^{-1/2})$

$\lim x \rightarrow \infty(\ln (\infty))}((\infty)^{-1/2})$ What does this come out to? Any hint?

# Coefficient of function with general argument

I would like to obtain the coefficients of a general function f in a list. For example, the coefficient list of

testList = {{2 f[2] + 3 f[3]},{2 f[1]}, {Sqrt[2] f[4]}}

should be the list

{{2,3},{2},{Sqrt[2]}}

I've tried the obvious solution

CoefficientList[testList, Variables[testList]]

But this gives me a lot of extra information, plus requires a few more array operations to write it in the correct form. I was wondering if there was a more efficient way to do this, since my lists will be eventually very large?

Cases[#, x_ f[_] -> x, Infinity] & /@ testList

{{2, 3}, {2}, {Sqrt[2]}}

• Since the variable names could change: Cases[#, x_ Alternatives @@ Variables[testList] -> x, Infinity] & /@ testList – eldo Jan 11 '16 at 1:30

# Bitmap

Rectangular bitmap of size n * m is given. Each pixel of the bitmap is either white or black, but at least one is white. The pixel in i-th line and j-th column is called the pixel (i, j). The distance between two pixels p1 = (i1, j1) and p2 = (i2, j2) is defined as:

d(p1, p2) = |i1i2| + |j1j2|

For each pixel find the distance to the nearest white pixel.

#### Input

The number of test cases t is given in the first line, then t test cases follow. First line of each test case contains pair of integer numbers n, m (1n1000, 1m1000). In each of the following n lines of the test case exactly one zero-one word of length m, the description of one line of the bitmap, is written. On the j-th position in the line i (1in, 1jm) there is 1 if, and only if the pixel (i, j) is white.

#### Output

In the i-th line for each test case there should be written m integers f(i, 1), ..., f(i, m) separated by single spaces, where f(i, j) is the distance from the pixel (i, j) to the nearest white pixel.

Part 2 - Multiple-Choice Practice Exam: 5

If the volume were to double while the mass stayed the same, its density would be halved.

Work Step by Step

Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$. Twice the volume means half the density. This is discussed on page 229.
