Low complexity inverse mappings on sum-distinct elements of a power set

From MaRDI portal





Let \(\cup\), \(\bigtriangleup\), \(\uplus\) and \(+\) denote set-union, set- difference, multiset-union and real number addition, respectively. In this paper, the author considers complexity inverse mappings (algorithms which return the subset of a given sum) defined on sum-distinct elements from \((2^ S, \cup)\), \((2^ S, \bigtriangleup)\), \((2^ S, \uplus)\) and \((S_ n,+)\), where \(2^ S\) is the power set of \(S\) and \(S_ n= \{0,1,2, \dots, 2^ n-1\}\). It is proved that, within each of the above pairs, mappings are related to generating functions of the respective sum-distinct sets, and between compatible pairs they are related by a subset-sum property, e.g., if \(Z\in 2^ S\) is sum-distinct in \((2^ S,\cup)\), then \(Z\) is sum-distinct in \((2^ S\), \(\bigtriangleup\)).
