【MX-X6/J7】Mengxiong Weekly (Open, Div.1+Div.3)
By luogu_official, history, 23 months ago, In English

We will hold 【MX-X6/J7】Mengxiong Weekly (Open) on Luogu. This is a Div.1+Div.3 round provided by our collaborator. If you cannot understand Chinese, ChatGPT may be helpful.

We are looking forward to your participation! If you cannot understand Chinese, ChatGPT may be helpful. We are working on establishing an English platform, but it takes time. We plan to complete this task by the end of 2024 or early 2025.

At first I thought the contest looked very early due to different time zones, but it seems that the contest is at 13:30 even in China? Is that a time when Chinese people are usually free? I'd assumed that they would either be at school or work.

    If the operation 3 is global (subtask 3), we can maintain a binary trie (separate by the lowest bit first) with lazy propagation.

    In general, we cut out a subtree, add some value for it, and put it back into another position. We might need to merge it with an existing subtree, but we can just merge them recursively in amorized $$$O(1)$$$ time (potential: number of nodes. reference).

Can we submit after the contest is over ?

If yes, then how ?

    It'll have to wait until the administrators add the problems to the main problem archive. After that, one may submit a problem when accessing it from the archive.

    upd. I've bumped the administrator, it should be available now :)

I got accepted for Div1F with $$$O(\sqrt{q} (n+q) \log(n+q)^2)$$$ time (in < 1 sec).

When $$$n$$$ is large enough, I checked every vertex which has a monent to have degree $$$\ge n-2$$$. There are $$$O(\min\{ n, q/n \})$$$ such vertices. For each vertex, since I didn't have a suitable link cut tree or something, I calculated the cost with 2 logs using offline dynamic connectivity. I feel like it might be as fast as 1 log.

Is it indeed that fast or there are not many tests with about $$$\sqrt{q}$$$ key vertices?

    Indeed, I did not anticipate this solution and therefore most tests (unfortunately) have $$$n\geq 10^4$$$. I think I had put in a few tests with something around $$$n=500, q=3\times 10^5$$$ (and I switched root every $$$3n$$$ operations or so) just in case, but it was not specially constructed against this solution, so the amount of key vertices may still be small.

    The reason for the TL to be 5s is that one of the testers wrote a self adjusting top tree which needs ~4s, and none of our testers (nor me) thought of anything between $$$O((n+q)\log^2n)$$$ and $$$O(nq)$$$.

Is there an editorial for these problems ?

If yes, where can I find it ?

Sorry for commenting other contest, but are there something wrong happening on luogu? The server response is currently very slow.
