Given the root of a binary tree, split the binary tree into two subtrees by removing one edge such that the product of the sums of the subtrees is maximized.
Return the maximum product of the sums of the two subtrees. Since the answer may be too large, return it modulo109 + 7.
Note that you need to maximize the answer before taking the mod and not after taking it.
Β
Example 1:
Input: root = [1,2,3,4,5,6]
Output: 110
Explanation: Remove the red edge and get 2 binary trees with sum 11 and 10. Their product is 110 (11*10)
Example 2:
Input: root = [1,null,2,3,4,null,null,5,6]
Output: 90
Explanation: Remove the red edge and get 2 binary trees with sum 15 and 6.Their product is 90 (15*6)

Constraints:
The number of nodes in the tree is in the range [2, 5 * 104].
1 <= Node.val <= 104
Solutions
Solution 1: Two DFS
We can solve this problem with two DFS traversals.
In the first traversal, we use a \(\text{sum}(\text{root})\) function to recursively calculate the sum of all nodes in the entire tree, denoted as \(s\).
In the second traversal, we use a \(\text{dfs}(\text{root})\) function to recursively traverse each node and calculate the sum of nodes in the subtree rooted at the current node, denoted as \(t\). After splitting at the current node and its parent, the sums of the two subtrees are \(t\) and \(s - t\) respectively, and their product is \(t \times (s - t)\). We traverse all nodes to find the maximum product, which is the answer.
The time complexity is \(O(n)\), and the space complexity is \(O(n)\), where \(n\) is the number of nodes in the binary tree.
