2866. Beautiful Towers II

Description

You are given a 0-indexed array maxHeights of n integers.

You are tasked with building n towers in the coordinate line. The ith tower is built at coordinate i and has a height of heights[i].

A configuration of towers is beautiful if the following conditions hold:

  1. 1 <= heights[i] <= maxHeights[i]
  2. heights is a mountain array.

Array heights is a mountain if there exists an index i such that:

  • For all 0 < j <= i, heights[j - 1] <= heights[j]
  • For all i <= k < n - 1, heights[k + 1] <= heights[k]

Return the maximum possible sum of heights of a beautiful configuration of towers.

 

Example 1:

Input: maxHeights = [5,3,4,1,1]
Output: 13
Explanation: One beautiful configuration with a maximum sum is heights = [5,3,3,1,1]. This configuration is beautiful since:
- 1 <= heights[i] <= maxHeights[i]  
- heights is a mountain of peak i = 0.
It can be shown that there exists no other beautiful configuration with a sum of heights greater than 13.

Example 2:

Input: maxHeights = [6,5,3,9,2,7]
Output: 22
Explanation: One beautiful configuration with a maximum sum is heights = [3,3,3,9,2,2]. This configuration is beautiful since:
- 1 <= heights[i] <= maxHeights[i]
- heights is a mountain of peak i = 3.
It can be shown that there exists no other beautiful configuration with a sum of heights greater than 22.

Example 3:

Input: maxHeights = [3,2,5,5,2,3]
Output: 18
Explanation: One beautiful configuration with a maximum sum is heights = [2,2,5,5,2,2]. This configuration is beautiful since:
- 1 <= heights[i] <= maxHeights[i]
- heights is a mountain of peak i = 2. 
Note that, for this configuration, i = 3 can also be considered a peak.
It can be shown that there exists no other beautiful configuration with a sum of heights greater than 18.

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= n == maxHeights.length <= 105
  • 1 <= maxHeights[i] <= 109

Solutions

Solution 1: Dynamic Programming + Monotonic Stack

We define $f[i]$ to represent the height sum of the beautiful tower scheme with the last tower as the tallest tower among the first $i+1$ towers. We can get the following state transition equation:

$$ f[i]= \begin{cases} f[i-1]+heights[i],&\textit{if } heights[i]\geq heights[i-1]\ heights[i]\times(i-j)+f[j],&\textit{if } heights[i]<heights[i-1] \end{cases} $$

Where $j$ is the index of the first tower to the left of the last tower with a height less than or equal to $heights[i]$. We can use a monotonic stack to maintain this index.

We can use a similar method to find $g[i]$, which represents the height sum of the beautiful tower scheme from right to left with the $i$th tower as the tallest tower. The final answer is the maximum value of $f[i]+g[i]-heights[i]$.

The time complexity is $O(n)$, and the space complexity is $O(n)$. Here, $n$ is the length of the array $maxHeights$.
