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 ...

It is a generalization of the master theorem for divide-and-conquer recurrences, which assumes that the sub-problems have equal size. It is named after mathematicians Mohamad Akra and Louay Bazzi. It is named after mathematicians Mohamad Akra and Louay Bazzi.
Usually, this involves determining a function that relates the size of an algorithm's input to the number of steps it takes (its time complexity) or the number of storage locations it uses (its space complexity). An algorithm is said to be efficient when this function's values are small, or grow slowly compared to a growth in the size of the input.
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 ]
Second, the suppressed information is provided. The inclusion of the suppressed information is guided by the proof of a scheduling theorem due to Brent, [2] which is explained later in this article. The WT framework is useful since while it can greatly simplify the initial description of a parallel algorithm, inserting the details suppressed by ...
The definition of matrix multiplication is that if C = AB for an n × m matrix A and an m × p matrix B, then C is an n × p matrix with entries = =. From this, a simple algorithm can be constructed which loops over the indices i from 1 through n and j from 1 through p, computing the above using a nested loop:
