Abstract
Determination as to whether a nondecreasing sequence exists or not is efficiently made. A sorting part sorts elements of a set Pin ascending order to generate vectors tand b. A merging part generates vectors tand bby repeating the process of merging vectors (t, b) and (t, b) to generate (t, b). A stable-sorting part generates a vector e by coupling and stably sorting vectors band t. A searching part searches for sets of (λ, x, y) in which e[λ] is b[x] and e[λ+1] is t[y] and generates a set X including all x and a set Y including all y. An extracting part sorts t[x] (x∈X) in ascending order to generate a vector tand sorts b[y] (y∈Y) in ascending order to generate a vector b. If the length of a vector tis 0, a determining part outputs a result of determination that indicates the absence of a nondecreasing sequence.
