1443. Minimum Time to Collect All Apples in a Tree

Description

Given an undirected tree consisting of n vertices numbered from 0 to n-1, which has some apples in their vertices. You spend 1 second to walk over one edge of the tree. Return the minimum time in seconds you have to spend to collect all apples in the tree, starting at vertex 0 and coming back to this vertex.

The edges of the undirected tree are given in the array edges, where edges[i] = [ai, bi] means that exists an edge connecting the vertices ai and bi. Additionally, there is a boolean array hasApple, where hasApple[i] = true means that vertex i has an apple; otherwise, it does not have any apple.

 

Example 1:

Input: n = 7, edges = [[0,1],[0,2],[1,4],[1,5],[2,3],[2,6]], hasApple = [false,false,true,false,true,true,false]
Output: 8 
Explanation: The figure above represents the given tree where red vertices have an apple. One optimal path to collect all apples is shown by the green arrows.

Example 2:

Input: n = 7, edges = [[0,1],[0,2],[1,4],[1,5],[2,3],[2,6]], hasApple = [false,false,true,false,false,true,false]
Output: 6
Explanation: The figure above represents the given tree where red vertices have an apple. One optimal path to collect all apples is shown by the green arrows.

Example 3:

Input: n = 7, edges = [[0,1],[0,2],[1,4],[1,5],[2,3],[2,6]], hasApple = [false,false,false,false,false,false,false]
Output: 0

 

Constraints:

  • 1 <= n <= 105
  • edges.length == n - 1
  • edges[i].length == 2
  • 0 <= ai < bi <= n - 1
  • hasApple.length == n

Solutions

Solution 1

Thinking

We start at \(0\), collect every apple, and return, so each used edge is traversed twice. \(n\le 10^5\) allows one DFS.

A subtree with no apple and no further work can be skipped. Sum the children's costs (entering a child costs \(2\)), and add the incoming edge only if this node has an apple or a child contributed a positive cost. The root's incoming cost is \(0\).
