2736. Maximum Sum Queries

Description

You are given two 0-indexed integer arrays nums1 and nums2, each of length n, and a 1-indexed 2D array queries where queries[i] = [xi, yi].

For the ith query, find the maximum value of nums1[j] + nums2[j] among all indices j (0 <= j < n), where nums1[j] >= xi and nums2[j] >= yi, or -1 if there is no j satisfying the constraints.

Return an array answer where answer[i] is the answer to the ith query.

 

Example 1:

Input: nums1 = [4,3,1,2], nums2 = [2,4,9,5], queries = [[4,1],[1,3],[2,5]]
Output: [6,10,7]
Explanation: 
For the 1st query xi = 4 and yi = 1, we can select index j = 0 since nums1[j] >= 4 and nums2[j] >= 1. The sum nums1[j] + nums2[j] is 6, and we can show that 6 is the maximum we can obtain.

For the 2nd query xi = 1 and yi = 3, we can select index j = 2 since nums1[j] >= 1 and nums2[j] >= 3. The sum nums1[j] + nums2[j] is 10, and we can show that 10 is the maximum we can obtain. 

For the 3rd query xi = 2 and yi = 5, we can select index j = 3 since nums1[j] >= 2 and nums2[j] >= 5. The sum nums1[j] + nums2[j] is 7, and we can show that 7 is the maximum we can obtain.

Therefore, we return [6,10,7].

Example 2:

Input: nums1 = [3,2,5], nums2 = [2,3,4], queries = [[4,4],[3,2],[1,1]]
Output: [9,9,9]
Explanation: For this example, we can use index j = 2 for all the queries since it satisfies the constraints for each query.

Example 3:

Input: nums1 = [2,1], nums2 = [2,3], queries = [[3,3]]
Output: [-1]
Explanation: There is one query in this example with xi = 3 and yi = 3. For every index, j, either nums1[j] < xi or nums2[j] < yi. Hence, there is no solution. 

 

Constraints:

  • nums1.length == nums2.length 
  • n == nums1.length 
  • 1 <= n <= 105
  • 1 <= nums1[i], nums2[i] <= 109 
  • 1 <= queries.length <= 105
  • queries[i].length == 2
  • xi == queries[i][1]
  • yi == queries[i][2]
  • 1 <= xi, yi <= 109

Solutions

Solution 1: Binary Indexed Tree

This problem belongs to the category of two-dimensional partial order problems.

A two-dimensional partial order problem is defined as follows: given several pairs of points $(a_1, b_1)$, $(a_2, b_2)$, ..., $(a_n, b_n)$, and a defined partial order relation, now given a point $(a_i, b_i)$, we need to find the number/maximum value of point pairs $(a_j, b_j)$ that satisfy the partial order relation. That is:

$$ \left(a_{j}, b_{j}\right) \prec\left(a_{i}, b_{i}\right) \stackrel{\text { def }}{=} a_{j} \lesseqgtr a_{i} \text { and } b_{j} \lesseqgtr b_{i} $$

The general solution to two-dimensional partial order problems is to sort one dimension and use a data structure to handle the second dimension (this data structure is generally a binary indexed tree).

For this problem, we can create an array $nums$, where $nums[i]=(nums_1[i], nums_2[i])$, and then sort $nums$ in descending order according to $nums_1$. We also sort the queries $queries$ in descending order according to $x$.

Next, we iterate through each query $queries[i] = (x, y)$. For the current query, we loop to insert the value of $nums_2$ for all elements in $nums$ that are greater than or equal to $x$ into the binary indexed tree. The binary indexed tree maintains the maximum value of $nums_1 + nums_2$ in the discretized $nums_2$ interval. Therefore, we only need to query the maximum value corresponding to the interval greater than or equal to the discretized $y$ in the binary indexed tree. Note that since the binary indexed tree maintains the prefix maximum value, we can insert $nums_2$ in reverse order into the binary indexed tree in the implementation.

The time complexity is $O((n + m) \times \log n + m \times \log m)$, and the space complexity is $O(n + m)$. Here, $n$ is the length of the array $nums$, and $m$ is the length of the array $queries$.
