    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divide-and-conquer_algorithm

    In computer science, divide and conquer is an algorithm design paradigm. A divide-and-conquer algorithm recursively breaks down a problem into two or more sub-problems of the same or related type, until these become simple enough to be solved directly. The solutions to the sub-problems are then combined to give a solution to the original problem.

  3. Master theorem (analysis of algorithms) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Master_theorem_(analysis...

    The master theorem always yields asymptotically tight bounds to recurrences from divide and conquer algorithms that partition an input into smaller subproblems of equal sizes, solve the subproblems recursively, and then combine the subproblem solutions to give a solution to the original problem. The time for such an algorithm can be expressed ...

  4. Algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algorithm

    Divide and conquer divides the problem into multiple subproblems and so the conquer stage is more complex than decrease and conquer algorithms. [citation needed] An example of a decrease and conquer algorithm is the binary search algorithm. Search and enumeration Many problems (such as playing chess) can be modelled as problems on graphs.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dijkstra–Scholten_algorithm

    A distributed computation which is tree-structured is not uncommon. Such a process graph may arise when the computation is strictly a divide-and-conquer type. A node starts the computation and divides the problem in two (or more usually, a multiple of 2) roughly equal parts and distribute those parts to other processors. This process continues ...

  7. Merge sort - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Merge_sort

    The closed form follows from the master theorem for divide-and-conquer recurrences. The number of comparisons made by merge sort in the worst case is given by the sorting numbers. These numbers are equal to or slightly smaller than (n ⌈lg n⌉ − 2 ⌈lg n⌉ + 1), which is between (n lg n − n + 1) and (n lg n + n + O(lg n)). [6]

  9. Divide-and-conquer eigenvalue algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divide-and-conquer_eigen...

    This technique can be used to improve the efficiency of many eigenvalue algorithms, but it has special significance to divide-and-conquer. For the rest of this article, we will assume the input to the divide-and-conquer algorithm is an real symmetric tridiagonal matrix . The algorithm can be modified for Hermitian matrices.
