(a) In the notes, we show that the stable matching algorithm terminates in at most n² days. Prove the following stronger result: the stable matching algorithm will always terminate in at most (n − 1)² + 1 = n² −2n+2 days. (b) Provide a set of preference lists for 4 jobs and 4 candidates that will result in the upper bound from part (a) when running the Propose-and-Reject algorithm. Verify this by running the Propose-and-Reject algorithm on your preference lists.
