Prove by induction $T(n) = T(\lfloor\frac{n}{2}\rfloor)+n^2 \in \Theta (\log_2 n)$
Text of the problem:
Solve the following recurrence equation and prove it by applying the principle of
induction:
$T(n) = \begin{cases} 3, \ n \le 2 \\ T(\lfloor\frac{n}{2}\rfloor)+n^2, \ n \ge 3 \en …

Design an optimal algorithm that finds 2 array indices in a sorted array such that $A [i] + ...
Text:
Given a non-descending ordered array A and an integer k, design an algorithm to find,
if any, the indices of a pair of elements whose sum is equal to k.

Determine the time complexity of repeated logarithm until not greater than 1
t <- n
while t>1 do
t <- log_2(t)
I tried to do it this way:
$f^\text{(1)}(t)=\log_2(t) \\ f^\text{(2)}(t)=\log_2\log_2(t) = \log_2^{(2)}(t) \\f^\text{(3)}(t) = \log_2^{(3)}(t) \\ f^\ …

Determine the time complexity of repeated logarithm until not greater than 1
I got it: this algorithm has a nearly-constant complexity, specifically the complexity is $\Theta(\log^{*}(n))$ where $\log^{*}(n) \le 5 \ \forall n \le 2^{16}$
