Let X = x1, x2, . . . , xn be a sequence of n integers. A sub-sequence of X is a sequence obtained from X by deleting some elements. Give an O(n2) algorithm to find the longest monotonically increasing sub-sequences of X.
Let X1, X2,...be a sequence of random variables. Suppose that Xn?a in probability for some a ? R. Show that (Xn) is Cauchy convergent in probability, that is, show that for all > 0 we have P(|Xn?Xm|> )?0 as n,m??.Is the converse true? (Prove if “yes”, find a counterexample if “no”)
Xo Xo Problem 1. Show that the recursively-defined sequence x*i-x, - gives the sequence of x-values described in this procedure, as follows: (a) Write the linear approximation 1 (x) to the curve at the point (Xn,f(xn). (b) Find where this linear approximation passes through the x-axis by solving L(x)0 for x. xn + 1-1,-I n). is the recursion formula for Newton's Method. : Xo Xo Problem 1.

Fibonacci sequence: Cauchy-Binet formula Let (Fn)n be the Fibo- nacci sequence defined recursively by F1 = F2 = 1 and Fn = Fn−1 + Fn−2In this way it all reduces to computing a high power of a 2 × 2 matrix. How can you compute an arbitrary power of a matrix and can you come up with the Cauchy-Binet formula from here?
