Problem 58E

Big-O, Big-Theta and big-Omega notation can be extended to functions in more than one variable. For example, the statement f (x, y) is O (g(x, y)) means that there exist constants C, k1 , and k2 such that whenever x > k1 and y > k2 .

(Requires calculus) Show that if b > 1 and c and d are positive, then (logbn)c is O(nd), but nd is not O((logbn)c).

ANSWER:

Solution:

Step1

Given that

We have to show that if b > 1 and c and d are positive, then (logbn)c is O(nd), but nd is not O((logbn)c).
