Study Notes

Question 1: Short Answer

Part (a): Binary Representation of 61: The binary representation of 61 is 111101.
Part (b): Predicates P(n) and Q(n): Define predicates to make (∀𝑛 ∈ ℕ, 𝑃(𝑛) ⇒ 𝑄(𝑛)) ⇒ (∃𝑚 ∈ ℕ, 𝑃(𝑚) ∧ 𝑄(𝑚)) true and (∃𝑛 ∈ ℕ, 𝑃(𝑛) ⇒ 𝑄(𝑛)) ⇒ (∀𝑚 ∈ ℕ, 𝑃(𝑚) ∧ 𝑄(𝑚)) false. One possible solution involves creating conditions where the implication is always true in the first statement but only true for some n in the second.
Part (c): Moduli: The number 𝑖 that satisfies 𝑖 ≡ 2 (mod 3) and 𝑖 ≡ 4 (mod 5) is 14.
Part (d): doubler(17) Loop Iterations: The loop in doubler(17) iterates 3 times.
Part (e): Formula for i(s): The formula for 𝑖(𝑠), the value of 𝑖 after 𝑠 iterations of the doubler loop, is 𝑖(𝑠) = 2^s.
Part (f): Iterations for doubler(n): The number of iterations for doubler(n) is ⌈log₂(√𝑛)⌉.
Part (g): Predicate Logic Statement for Dogs: The statement "There is exactly one dog that has fleas and lives in the arctic" can be expressed as: ∃𝑑 ∈ 𝐷, (𝐴(𝑑) ∧ 𝐹(𝑑)) ∧ (∀𝑑′ ∈ 𝐷, (𝐴(𝑑′) ∧ 𝐹(𝑑′)) ⇒ 𝑑 = 𝑑′).
Part (h): Units Digit of 3⁹⁸³¹²: The units digit of 3⁹⁸³¹² is 1.

Question 2: Number Theory

Part (a): Moduli Proof: To prove that if 𝑎 ≡ 𝑏 (mod 17) and 𝑎 ≡ 𝑏 (mod 19), then 𝑎 ≡ 𝑏 (mod 17 × 19), utilize the given theorem about prime factorization and the properties of modular arithmetic. Since 17 and 19 are prime, if they both divide (a-b), then their product (17*19) must also divide (a-b).
Part (b): Prime-Free Range: Prove that there is no prime number 𝑝 such that (𝑚!+ 2) ≤ 𝑝 ≤ (𝑚!+ 𝑚) for natural number 𝑚 > 1. All integers within that range are composite because they are divisible by integers from 2 to m..
Part (c): Faulty Proof Analysis: The inductive proof for P(n): "∀𝐺 = (𝑉 , 𝐸), |𝐸| = |𝑉 | − 1 ⇒ 𝐺 is connected" breaks down at n=3. A graph with 3 vertices and 2 edges might not be connected, showing the inductive step is flawed for this specific case.

Question 3: Big-Omega/Big-Oh

Part (a): Proof that f ∉ Ω(g): Prove that 𝑛⁴ ∉ Ω(2𝑛) by showing that no constants c_Ω and n_Ω exist to satisfy the definition of big-Omega for all n ≥ n_Ω.
Part (b): Proof that f ∈ 𝑂(g): Prove that 𝑛⁴ ∈ 𝑂(2^𝑛) by finding constants c_𝑂 and n_𝑂 that satisfy the Big-Oh definition for all n ≥ n_𝑂.

Question 4: Runtime Analysis

Part (a): Upper Bound for has_dominator: The worst-case runtime for has_dominator is 𝑂(𝑛²). This is because of its nested loops, leading to roughly n(n-1)/2 comparisons in the worst case, which is of the order of n². A formal proof would involve showing that the number of operations is bounded above by a quadratic function of n for all sufficiently large n.
