  2. C(n,r)=p(n,r)/r! Definition 2: The exponential generating function for the sequence a0,a1,…,an,…of real numbers is the infinite series

  3. Theorem 4.17: Let S be the multiset {n1·a1,n2·a2,…,nk·ak} where n1,n2,…,nk are non-negative integers. Let br be the number of r-permutations of S. Then the exponential generating function g(x) for the sequence b1, b2,…, bk,… is given by • g(x)=gn1(x)·g n2(x)·…·gnk(x)，where for i=1,2,…,k, • gni(x)=1+x+x2/2!+…+xni/ni! . • (1)The coefficient of xr/r! in gn1(x)·g n2(x)·…·gnk(x) is

  4. Example: Let S={1·a1,1·a2,…,1·ak}. Determine the number r-permutations of S. • Solution: Let pr be the number r-permutations of S, and

  5. Example: Let S={·a1,·a2,…,·ak}，Determine the number r-permutations of S. • Solution: Let pr be the number r-permutations of S, • gri(x)=(1+x+x2/2!+…+xr/r!+…)，then • g(x)=(1+x+x2/2!+…+xr/r!+…)k=(ex)k=ekx

  6. Example：Let S={2·x1,3·x2}，Determine the number 4-permutations of S. • Let pr be the number r-permutations of S, • g(x)=(1+x+x2/2!)(1+x+x2/2!+x3/3!) • Note: pr is coefficient of xr/r!. • Example：Let S={2·x1,3·x2,4·x3}. Determine the number of 4-permutations of S so that each of the 3 types of objects occurs even times. • Solution: Let pr be the number r-permutations of S, • g(x)=(1+x2/2!)(1+x2/2!)(1+x2/2!+x4/4!)

  7. Example: Let S={·a1,·a2, ·a3}，Determine the number of r-permutations of S so that a3 occurs even times and a2 occurs at least one time. • Let pr be the number r-permutations of S, • g(x)=(1+x+x2/2!+…+xr/r!+…)(x+x2/2!+…+xr/r! +…) (1+x2/2!+x4/4!+…)=ex(ex-1)(ex+e-x)/2 • =(e3x-e2x+ex-1)/2

  9. 4.7 Recurrence Relations • P13, P100 • Definition: A recurrence relation for the sequence{an} is an equation that expresses an in terms of one or more of the previous terms of the sequence, namely, a0, a1, …, an-1, for all integers n with nn0, where n0 is a nonnegative integer. • A sequence is called a solution of a recurrence relation if its terms satisfy the recurrence relation. • Initial condition: the information about the beginning of the sequence.

  10. Example(Fibonacci sequence): • 13 世纪初意大利数学家 Fibonacci 研究过著名的兔子繁殖数目问题 • A young pair rabbits (one of each sex) is placed in enclosure. A pair rabbits dose not breed until they are 2 months old, each pair of rabbits produces another pair each month. Find a recurrence relation for the number of pairs of rabbits in the enclosure after n months, assuming that no rabbits ever die. • Solution: Let Fn be the number of pairs of rabbits after n months, • (1)Born during month n • (2)Present in month n-1 • Fn=Fn-2+Fn-1，F1=F2=1

  11. Example (The Tower of Hanoi): There are three pegs and n circular disks of increasing size on one peg, with the largest disk on the bottom. These disks are to be transferred, one at a time, onto another of the pegs, with the provision that at no time is one allowed to place a larger disk on top of a smaller one. The problem is to determine the number of moves necessary for the transfer. • Solution: Let h(n) denote the number of moves needed to solve the Tower of Hanoi problem with n disks. h(1)=1 • (1)We must first transfer the top n-1 disks to a peg • (2)Then we transfer the largest disk to the vacant peg • (3)Lastly, we transfer the n-1 disks to the peg which contains the largest disk. • h(n)=2h(n-1)+1, h(1)=1

  12. Using Characteristic roots to solve recurrence relations • Using Generating functions to solve recurrence relations

  13. 4.7.1 Using Characteristic roots to solve recurrence relations • Definition: A linear homogeneous recurrence relation of degree k with constant coefficients is a recurrence relation of the form • an=h1an-1+h2an-2+…+hkan-k, where hi are constants for all i=1,2,…,k,n≥k, and hk≠0. • Definition: A linear nonhomogeneous recurrence relation of degree k with constant coefficients is a recurrence relation of the form • an=h1an-1+h2an-2+…+hkan-k+f(n), where hi are constants for all i=1,2,…,k,n≥k, and hk≠0.

  14. Definition: The equation xk-h1xk-1-h2xk-2-…-hk=0 is called the characteristic equation of the recurrence relation an=h1an-1+h2an-2+…+hkan-k. The solutions q1,q2,…,qk of this equation are called the characteristic root of the recurrence relation, where qi(i=1,2,…,k) is complex number. • Theorem 4.18: Suppose that the characteristic equation has k distinct roots q1,q2,…,qk. Then the general solution of the recurrence relation is • an=c1q1n+c2q2n+…+ckqkn, where c1,c2,…ck are constants.

  15. Example: Solve the recurrence relation • an=2an-1+2an-2，(n≥2) • subject to the initial values a1=3 and a2=8. • characteristic equation : • x2-2x-2=0, • roots: • q1=1+31/2，q2=1-31/2。 • the general solution of the recurrence relation is • an=c1(1+31/2)n+c2(1-31/2)n, • We want to determine c1 and c2 so that the initial values • c1(1+31/2)+c2(1-31/2)=3, • c1(1+31/2)2+c2(1-31/2)2=8

  16. Theorem 4.19: Suppose that the characteristic equation has t distinct roots q1,q2,…,qt with multiplicities m1,m2,…,mt, respectively, so that mi≥1 for i=1,2,…,t and m1+m2+…+mt=k. Then the general solution of the recurrence relation is where cij are constants for 1≤j≤mi and 1≤i≤t.

  17. Example: Solve the recurrence relation • an+an-1-3an-2-5an-3-2an-4=0,n≥4 • subject to the initial values a0=1,a1=a2=0, and a3=2. • characteristic equation • x4+x3-3x2-5x-2=0, • roots:-1,-1,-1,2 • By Theorem 4.19：the general solution of the recurrence relation is • an=c11(-1)n+c12n(-1)n+c13n2(-1)n+c212n • We want to determine cij so that the initial values • c11+c21=1 • -c11-c12-c13+2c21=0 • c11+2c12+4c13+4c21=0 • -c11-3c12-9c13+8c21=2 • c11=7/9,c12=-13/16,c13=1/16,c21=1/8 • an=7/9(-1)n-(13/16)n(-1)n+(1/16)n2(-1)n+(1/8)2n

  18. the general solution of the linear nonhomogeneous recurrence relation of degree k with constant coefficients is • an=a'n+a n* • a'n is the general solution of the linear homogeneous recurrence relation of degree k with constant coefficients an=h1an-1+h2an-2+…+hkan-k • a n*is a particular solution of the nonhomogeneous linear recurrence relation with constant coefficients • an=h1an-1+h2an-2+…+hkan-k+f(n)

  19. Theorem 4.20: If {a n*} is a particular solution of the nonhomogeneous linear recurrence relation with constant coefficients • an=h1an-1+h2an-2+…+hkan-k+f(n), • then every solution is of the form {a'n+a n*}, where {a n*} is a general solution of the associated homogeneous recurrence relation an=h1an-1+h2an-2+…+hkan-k. • Key:a n*

  20. (1)When f(n) is a polynomial in n of degree t, • a n*=P1nt+P2nt-1+…+Ptn+Pt+1 • where P1,P2,…,Pt,Pt+1 are constant coefficients • (2)When f(n) is a power function with constant coefficient n, if  is not a characteristic root of the associated homogeneous recurrence relation, • a n*= Pn， • where P is a constant coefficient. • if  is a characteristic root of the associated homogeneous recurrence relation with multiplicities m, • a n*= Pnmn，where P is a constant coefficient. • Example: Find all solutions of the recurrence relation an+2an-1=n+1,n1, a0=2

  21. Example: Find all solutions of the recurrence relation h(n)=2h(n-1)+1, n2, h(1)=1 • Example: Find all solutions of the recurrence relation • an=an-1+7n,n1, a0=1 • If let an*=P1n+P2, • P1n+P2-P1(n-1)-P2=7n • P1=7n • Contradiction • let an*=P1n2+P2n

  22. 4.7.2 Using Generating functions to solve recurrence relations Example: Solve the recurrence relation an=an-1+9an-2-9an-3,n≥3 subject to the initial values a0=0, a1=1, a2=2

  23. Example: Solve the recurrence relation: • an=an-1+9an-2-9an-3,n≥3 • subject to the initial valuesa0=0, a1=1, a2=2 • Solution: Let Generating functions of {an} be： • f(x)=a0+a1x+a2x2+…+anxn+… , then: • -xf(x) =-a0x-a1x2-a2x3…-anxn+1-… • -9x2f(x) = -9a0x2-9a1x3-9a2x4-…-9an-2xn-… • 9x3f(x) = 9a0x3+9a1x4+…+9an-3xn+… • (1-x-9x2+9x3)f(x)=a0+(a1-a0)x+(a2-a1-9a0)x2+ (a3-a2-9a1+9a0)x3+…+(an-an-1-9an-2+9an-3)xn+… a0=0,a1=1, a2=2，and when n≥3,an-an-1-9an-2+9an-3=0， (an=an-1+9an-2-9an-3) thus： (1-x-9x2+9x3)f(x)=x+x2 f(x)=(x+x2)/(1-x-9x2+9x3) =(x+x2)/((1-x)(1+3x)(1-3x)) 1/(1-x)=1+x+x2+…+xn+…； 1/(1+3x)=1-3x+32x2-…+(-1)n3nxn+… 1/(1-3x)=1+3x+32x2+…+3nxn+…；

  24. Example: Find an explicit formula for the Fibonacci numbers, • Fn=Fn-2+Fn-1， • F1=F2=1。 • Solution: Let Generating functions of {Fn} be： • f(x)=F0+F1x+F2x2+…+Fnxn+…,then： • -xf(x) =-F0x-F1x2-F2x3…-Fnxn+1-… • -x2f(x) =-F0x2-F1x3-F2x4-…-Fn-2xn-… • (1-x-x2)f(x)=F1x+(F2-F1)x2+(F3-F2-F1)x3+(F4-F3-F2)x4+…+(Fn-Fn-1-Fn-2)xn+… • F1=1, F2=1，and when n≥3,Fn-Fn-1-Fn-2=0， • (Fn=Fn-1+Fn-2) • thus： • (1-x-x2)f(x)=x • f(x)=x/(1-x-x2) Fn-10.618Fn。 golden section黄金分割。
