We study the variety of subtrees lying on the fringe of recursive trees and binary search trees by analyzing the distributional behavior of Xn,k, which counts the number of subtree...
We use large deviations to prove a general theorem on the asymptotic edge-weighted height Hn of a large class of random trees for which Hn c log n for some positive constant c. A...
The small physical size of mobile devices imposes dramatic restrictions on the user interface (UI). With the ever increasing capacity of these devices as well as access to large o...

Binary search trees are one of the most fundamental data structures. While the height of such a tree may be linear in the worst case, the average height with respect to the uniform...
We consider the problem of maintaining a binary search tree (BST) that minimizes the average access cost needed to satisfy randomly generated requests. We analyze scenarios in whi...
