Tree Modification
题意翻译
给定一棵$n$个点的树,一次操作,你可以选定三个点$a,b,c$,要求$a$与$b$相邻,$b$与$c$相邻,然后进行如下操作: - 所有与$a$相邻的节点和$c$连边; - 断掉连接$a$与其所有相邻节点的边; - $a$与$c$连边。 你需要最小化操作次数,使得这棵树仅存在一个节点度数为$n-1$,其他节点的度数都为$1$。不需要输出方案。 $n \leq 2 \times 10^5$。题目描述
You are given a tree with $ n $ vertices. You are allowed to modify the structure of the tree through the following multi-step operation: 1. Choose three vertices $ a $ , $ b $ , and $ c $ such that $ b $ is adjacent to both $ a $ and $ c $ . 2. For every vertex $ d $ other than $ b $ that is adjacent to $ a $ , remove the edge connecting $ d $ and $ a $ and add the edge connecting $ d $ and $ c $ . 3. Delete the edge connecting $ a $ and $ b $ and add the edge connecting $ a $ and $ c $ . As an example, consider the following tree: ![](https://cdn.luogu.com.cn/upload/vjudge_pic/CF1375G/eafeabf55552a872e419f2e9d6a1d53612765f20.png)The following diagram illustrates the sequence of steps that happen when we apply an operation to vertices $ 2 $ , $ 4 $ , and $ 5 $ : ![](https://cdn.luogu.com.cn/upload/vjudge_pic/CF1375G/c824e4b3dc28492ea8b0c323d7e50d614cefde05.png)It can be proven that after each operation, the resulting graph is still a tree. Find the minimum number of operations that must be performed to transform the tree into a star. A star is a tree with one vertex of degree $ n - 1 $ , called its center, and $ n - 1 $ vertices of degree $ 1 $ .输入输出格式
输入格式
The first line contains an integer $ n $ ( $ 3 \le n \le 2 \cdot 10^5 $ ) — the number of vertices in the tree. The $ i $ -th of the following $ n - 1 $ lines contains two integers $ u_i $ and $ v_i $ ( $ 1 \le u_i, v_i \le n $ , $ u_i \neq v_i $ ) denoting that there exists an edge connecting vertices $ u_i $ and $ v_i $ . It is guaranteed that the given edges form a tree.
输出格式
Print a single integer — the minimum number of operations needed to transform the tree into a star. It can be proven that under the given constraints, it is always possible to transform the tree into a star using at most $ 10^{18} $ operations.
