Minimum Sum of Maximums
의견: 0
Bessie has \(N\) (\(2\le N\le 300\)) tiles in a line with ugliness values
\(a_1, a_2, \dots, a_N\) in that order (\(1\le a_i\le 10^6\)). \(K\)
(\(0\le K\le \min(N,6)\)) of the tiles are stuck in place; specifically, those at
indices \(x_1,\dots, x_K\) (\(1\le x_1 < x_2<\dots< x_K\le N\)).
Bessie wants to minimize the total ugliness of the tiles, which is defined as
the sum of the maximum ugliness over every consecutive pair of tiles; that is,
\(\sum_{i=1}^{N-1}\max(a_i,a_{i+1})\). She is allowed to perform the following
operation any number of times: choose two tiles, neither of which are stuck in
place, and swap them.
Determine the minimum possible total ugliness Bessie can achieve if she performs
operations optimally.

The first line contains \(N\) and \(K\).
The next line contains \(a_1,\dots,a_N\).
The next line contains the \(K\) indices \(x_1,\dots,x_K\).
Output the minimum possible total ugliness.

1 100 10110Bessie can swap the second and third tiles so that \(a=[1,10,100]\), achieving
total ugliness \(\max(1,10)+\max(10,100)=110\). Alternatively, she could swap the
first and second tiles so that \(a=[100,1,10]\), also achieving total ugliness
\(\max(100,1)+\max(1,10)=110\).

2200The initial total ugliness of the tiles is \(\max(1,100)+\max(100,10)=200\).
Bessie is only allowed to swap the first and third tiles, which does not allow
her to reduce the total ugliness.
