Question

1. (50) [Recurrence relation] Given the following recurrence equation of T(n), express T(n) in an asymptotic big-O function from. Use the telescoping approach. State any simplifying assumption you are making. It suffices to derive the functional form only; there is no need to prove it by the formal definition of big-O. \begin{equation} T(n) = \begin{cases} T(\frac{n}{4}) + n^2 & \text{for } n \ge 4 \\ 1 & \text{otherwise} \end{cases} \end{equation}
