+# Longest Increasing Subsequence
+
+The longest increasing subsequence problem is to find a subsequence of a 
+given sequence in which the subsequence's elements are in sorted order, 
+lowest to highest, and in which the subsequence is as long as possible. 
+This subsequence is not necessarily contiguous, or unique. 
+
+## Complexity
+
+The longest increasing subsequence problem is solvable in 
+time `O(n log n)`, where `n` denotes the length of the input sequence.
+
+Dynamic programming approach has complexity `O(n * n)`.
+
+## Example
+
+In the first 16 terms of the binary Van der Corput sequence
+
+```
+0, 8, 4, 12, 2, 10, 6, 14, 1, 9, 5, 13, 3, 11, 7, 15
+```
+
+a longest increasing subsequence is
+
+```
+0, 2, 6, 9, 11, 15.
+```
+
+This subsequence has length six; 
+the input sequence has no seven-member increasing subsequences. 
+The longest increasing subsequence in this example is not unique: for 
+instance,
+
+```
+0, 4, 6, 9, 11, 15 or
+0, 2, 6, 9, 13, 15 or
+0, 4, 6, 9, 13, 15
+```
+
+are other increasing subsequences of equal length in the same 
+input sequence.
