First, we calculate the answer for each $$$i$$$ (the subtree of $$$i$$$) and subtree sizes, where the starting point is arbitrary.
Let's go back to our hint. Suppose we already have the answer for $$$dp_{v}$$$.
To get the answer for $$$dp_{u}$$$, we need to understand how the answer changes based on the subtree of $$$u$$$ and the part outside it.
This technique is known as Rerooting. When we transition from $$$v$$$ to $$$u$$$, we divide the total contribution into two parts:
1. inside the subtree of $$$u$$$, and
2. outside the subtree of $$$u$$$.
If $$$n - sz_{u} \lt k$$$, then we should subtract that contribution from $$$dp_{v}$$$ — this corresponds to the part outside the subtree of $$$u$$$, because when $$$u$$$ becomes root, $$$v$$$ have no longer subtree of $$$u$$$ as a subtree, which implies that we need to remove contribution of it. As for the subtree of $$$u$$$: if $$$sz_{u} \lt k$$$, then the answer increases by one because $$$n \ge k$$$.
Finally, the transition becomes:
$$$ dp_{u} = dp_{v} - (n - sz_{u} \lt k) + (sz_{u} \lt k) $$$
