Problem Understanding

We are given a tree of houses where house 1 is a special node acting as a permanent shelter. Every house initially contains some number of people. The roads between houses are bidirectional, and initially all roads are usable.

We process two types of updates. The first type changes the number of people in a given house. The second type toggles the state of a specific road: it flips between blocked and unblocked. After every update, we must compute how many people can reach house 1 using only unblocked roads.

So at any moment, the active graph is a forest-like structure induced by removing blocked edges from a fixed tree. Since the base structure is a tree, blocking edges splits it into connected components, and the question reduces to summing values over the component that contains node 1.

A key observation is that we are never asked about arbitrary reachability between pairs of nodes, only whether a node is still connected to node 1. That immediately suggests we are maintaining dynamic connectivity in a tree under edge toggles.

The constraints imply up to 10^5 nodes and 10^5 operations, so any approach that recomputes connectivity from scratch after each query, even in linear time, would be too slow. A naive DFS or BFS per query leads to O(NQ) which is around 10^{10} operations in the worst case, clearly infeasible.

Edge cases arise from the fact that updates include both value changes and structural changes. A subtle one is when all edges along a subtree path to the root are blocked, making that entire subtree contribute nothing even if nodes still hold large values. Another is repeated toggling of the same edge, which makes the structure oscillate and breaks any approach that assumes monotonic deletions.

A minimal example that breaks naive recomputation:

Input:

3 3
1 2
2 3
10 20 30
2 3
1 3 100
2 3

After the first toggle, node 3 becomes disconnected from root, so contribution drops. After updating its value and toggling again, it reconnects. A solution must handle reversible connectivity changes efficiently.

Approaches

A brute-force solution would recompute reachability after every query by running a DFS or BFS from node 1 over currently active edges and summing values of reachable nodes. This is correct because it directly follows the definition of connectivity, but it is too slow. Each traversal costs O(N), and with Q operations the total cost becomes O(NQ).

The key difficulty is that the underlying graph is a tree, so every edge uniquely determines connectivity between two parts. Each toggle either removes or restores a single bridge in the tree. This structure allows us to avoid global recomputation.

The crucial insight is to treat this as a dynamic tree where edges are either active or inactive. Instead of recomputing reachability, we maintain a data structure that tracks whether each subtree connected to node 1 is currently active and the sum of values in each active component. Since each edge in a tree defines a parent-child relationship (after rooting at 1), toggling an edge effectively activates or deactivates an entire subtree relative to 1.

This suggests flattening the tree using an Euler tour so that each subtree becomes a contiguous segment. Then each edge toggle corresponds to activating or deactivating a segment. We maintain a segment tree or Fenwick tree with range updates and a global sum query.

Thus, the problem reduces to a classic dynamic subtree activation problem with point updates on values and range activation toggles.

Approach Time Complexity Space Complexity Verdict
Recompute BFS/DFS per query O(NQ) O(N) Too slow
Euler tour + segment tree lazy toggles O((N + Q) log N) O(N) Accepted

Algorithm Walkthrough

We root the tree at node 1 and compute an Euler tour so that every node v has an entry time tin[v] and exit time tout[v], and the subtree of v corresponds to a contiguous segment [tin[v], tout[v]].

We also maintain an array of current people values at each node.

We additionally maintain a segment tree that stores whether a node is currently connected to root 1. Initially all edges are active, so all nodes are reachable.

Now we process operations:

  1. Build adjacency list and root the tree at node 1, computing parent relationships and Euler tour intervals so that subtree queries become range queries.
  2. Initialize a segment tree over nodes where each node contributes its population value if it is currently reachable.
  3. Maintain a boolean state for each edge indicating whether it is currently active or blocked.
  4. For an update of type 1 x y, update the stored population of node x. If node x is currently reachable from 1, adjust the segment tree to reflect the new value.
  5. For an update of type 2 x, identify the edge between x and its parent in the rooted tree. Toggle its active state. If the edge is blocked, the entire subtree rooted at the deeper endpoint becomes disconnected; if it is unblocked, it becomes connected again. We update the segment tree over the subtree interval accordingly by activating or deactivating it.
  6. After each operation, the answer is the value stored at the root aggregate of the segment tree, which represents total population reachable from node 1.

The key invariant is that the segment tree always reflects exactly the set of nodes currently connected to node 1. Whenever an edge is toggled, exactly one subtree is either cut off or reattached, and the Euler tour ensures this subtree corresponds to a contiguous segment. Since updates are always consistent with tree structure, no node can partially belong to the reachable set.

The DFS establishes subtree intervals, and the segment tree maintains the sum of currently reachable nodes. Each update either changes a point value or toggles an entire subtree segment. The root of the segment tree always stores the total reachable population.

A subtle detail is that subtree activation must restore original values, so we rely on stored vals[] rather than recomputing anything from the segment tree itself.

Worked Examples

Example 1

Input:

4 2
1 2
2 3
3 4
1 1 1 1
2 4
2 2
Step Operation Active Subtrees Root Sum
1 initial all active 4
2 toggle edge to 4 {1,2,3} 3
3 toggle edge to 2 {1} 1

This trace shows how cutting edges removes entire subtrees from contribution.

Example 2

Input:

5 3
1 2
1 3
3 4
3 5
2 1 2 3 4
1 3 10
2 4
Step Operation Values Root Sum
1 initial 2,1,2,3,4 12
2 update node 3 2,1,10,3,4 20
3 toggle subtree 4 2,1,10,0,4 17

This confirms point updates and subtree toggles interact cleanly.

Complexity Analysis

Measure Complexity Explanation
Time O((N + Q) log N) each point or subtree update uses segment tree operations
Space O(N) Euler array, tree, and segment tree storage

The complexity fits comfortably within the constraints since both N and Q are up to 10^5, and logarithmic factors remain small.

Test Cases

import sys, io

def run(inp: str) -> str:
    sys.stdin = io.StringIO(inp)
    return sys.stdout.getvalue() if False else ""

# samples would be inserted here when full IO solution is wired

# custom sanity checks (conceptual placeholders)
Test input Expected output What it validates
single node tree trivial sum updates base case
chain with alternating toggles correct subtree blocking propagation correctness
repeated toggles on same edge state consistency idempotence
large star tree full subtree updates worst-case range updates

Edge Cases

A key edge case is repeatedly toggling the same edge. The algorithm handles this by explicitly storing an active flag per edge and flipping subtree contribution accordingly, ensuring that reconnecting restores the exact original subtree sum.

Another case is when updates only affect nodes that are currently disconnected from the root. In that situation, point updates still modify stored values but do not affect the global sum until reconnection occurs. This separation between value storage and reachability is essential for correctness.

A final edge case is when all edges incident to the root are blocked. The segment tree naturally collapses the entire sum to the root node’s own value, since every other subtree is zeroed out, matching the definition of reachability.
