Sections 4.3 (The master method) and 4.4 (Proof of the master theorem), pp. 73–90. Michael T. Goodrich and Roberto Tamassia. Algorithm Design: Foundation, Analysis, and Internet Examples. Wiley, 2002. ISBN 0-471-38365-1. The master theorem (including the version of Case 2 included here, which is stronger than the one from CLRS) is on pp. 268 ...
In mathematics, a theorem that covers a variety of cases is sometimes called a master theorem. Some theorems called master theorems in their fields include: Master theorem (analysis of algorithms), analyzing the asymptotic behavior of divide-and-conquer algorithms; Ramanujan's master theorem, providing an analytic expression for the Mellin ...

In the algorithm above, steps 1, 2 and 7 will only be run once. For a worst-case evaluation, it should be assumed that step 3 will be run as well. Thus the total amount of time to run steps 1-3 and step 7 is: + + +. The loops in steps 4, 5 and 6 are trickier to evaluate.
In computer science, the Akra–Bazzi method, or Akra–Bazzi theorem, is used to analyze the asymptotic behavior of the mathematical recurrences that appear in the analysis of divide and conquer algorithms where the sub-problems have substantially different sizes.
For this recurrence relation, the master theorem for divide-and-conquer recurrences gives the asymptotic bound () = (). It follows that, for sufficiently large n , Karatsuba's algorithm will perform fewer shifts and single-digit additions than longhand multiplication, even though its basic step uses more additions and shifts than the ...
MacMahon is best known for his study of symmetric functions and enumeration of plane partitions; see MacMahon Master theorem. His two volume Combinatory analysis, published in 1915/16, [2] is the first major book in enumerative combinatorics. MacMahon also did pioneering work in recreational mathematics and developed several successful puzzle games
Divide-and-conquer approach to sort the list (38, 27, 43, 3, 9, 82, 10) in increasing order. Upper half: splitting into sublists; mid: a one-element list is trivially sorted; lower half: composing sorted sublists. The divide-and-conquer paradigm is often used to find an optimal solution of a problem.
