    We can make the permutation operation k times in logk by binary lifting. So, we make a "reverse permutation", then calculate for the operations 2 and 3 the indexes of the elements by doing k steps in that reversed permutation.

Somebody explain FLGZRO ?

How to calculate the contribution per leaf node? If a[i] would be distinct, it would be simply $$$2^{lenOfPath}$$$, but how do we consider not distinct a[i] in the path?
