Union-find 并查集

解决问题

给一系列对点0~N-1的连接，判断某两个点p与q是否相连。

private int[] id;

// 判断p和q是否属于同一个连通分量
public boolean connected(int p, int q) 

// 连接两个点
public void union(int p, int q)

　　

Quick-find

connected(p, q):判断p 和 q 的id值是否相同

union(p, q): 将与p 的id 相同的所有点都改为q的id

缺点：union太慢，需要遍历id数组

Quick-union

connected(p, q):判断p 和 q 的根的id值是否相同

union(p, q): 将与p 的根的 id 改为q的根的 id

本质上是将并查集之间的关系看做一棵树

缺点：最坏情况下仍然需要遍历数组

Weighted Quick-union

connected(p, q):判断p 和 q 的根的id值是否相同

union(p, q): 判断p和q所在的树哪个大（包含的节点多），将较小的树根的 id 改为较大的树根的 id

某个节点高度增加1，当且仅当它在一颗小树T1上且被union并入大树T2中，生成的树节点数大于T1的两倍，所以某个节点的高度最多只能是lg(N)

Weighted Quick-union with Path Compression

connected(p, q):判断p 和 q 的根的id值是否相同

union(p, q): 判断p和q所在的树哪个大（包含的节点多），将较小的节点到较小的树根这条路径上所有节点的 id 改为较大的树根的 id

总结

四种方法复杂度如下，其中lg* 表示需要取对数多少次才能将N的值变为≤1，WQUPC复杂度是由论文中所得，lg*可以视为常数复杂度。
