CF 187A - Permutations

We are given two permutations containing the numbers from 1 to n. The first permutation is the current arrangement, and the second permutation is the target arrangement we want to reach. The allowed operation is unusual.

CF 187B - AlgoRace

We have a complete directed graph on n cities. For every car type, we know the travel time between every ordered pair of cities. These travel times are not guaranteed to be symmetric, so going from u to v may cost something different than going from v to u.

CF 187C - Weak Memory

We have an undirected graph representing intersections and roads inside the park. Some intersections contain volunteers. PMP starts at intersection s, and the bus station is at intersection t. PMP has weak memory.

CF 187D - BRT Contract

A bus travels through a fixed sequence of road segments. Between consecutive segments there are traffic lights, and every light follows the same synchronized cycle. Each cycle lasts g + r seconds.

CF 187E - Heaven Tour

We have n people placed on a line at strictly increasing coordinates. PMP starts at person s, which immediately counts as visited. Every later move must go either strictly left or strictly right, depending on the ticket used for that move.
