A Classical Problem?
By JianfengZhu, history, 18 months ago, In English

You are given a permutation of $$$n$$$. Build an undirected graph of $$$n$$$ nodes. There is an edge $$$(i,j)$$$ if and only if $$$i<j$$$ and $$$p_i < p_j$$$. Please find the maximum matching of the graph.

I don't know how to do it in $$$O(n \log n)$$$.

https://codeforces.me/gym/103627/problem/D is basically that. I only have polylog solutions, but I cited some sources that claim O(n log log n) solutions.

    Not only is it too slow, but it's also wrong and I think it's due to its sqrt ""optimisation"". I instantly hacked it with the permutation 1 5 3 8 4 2 9 7 6 10.

    Don't rely on ML tools for code. They're mistake generators.
