  1. Lower Bound on Sorting David Kauchak cs062 Spring 2010

  2. Decision-tree model • Binary tree representing the comparisons between elements by a sorting algorithm • Internal nodes contain indices to be compared • Leaves contain a complete permutation of the input • Tracing a path from root to leave gives the correct reordering/permutation of the input for an input 1:3 ≤ > [3, 12, 7] | 1,3,2 | [3, 7, 12] | 1,3,2 | [3, 7, 12] | 2,1,3 | [7, 3, 12]

  3. Comparison-based sorting • Sorted order is determined based only on a comparison between input elements • A[i] < A[j] • A[i] > A[j] • A[i] = A[j] • A[i] ≤ A[j] • A[i] ≥ A[j] • This is why most built-in sorting approaches only require you to define the comparison operator (i.e. compareTo in Java) • Can we do better than O(n log n)?

  19. How many leaves are in a decision tree? • Leaves must have all possible permutations of the input • What if decision tree model didn’t? • Some input would exist that didn’t have a correct reordering • For an input of size n, how many leaves? • n! leaves
