Exploring the duality between skip lists and binary search trees
Although skip lists were introduced as an alternative to balanced binary search trees (BSTs), we show that the skip list can be interpreted as a type of randomly-balanced BST whos...

Efficient Reorganization of Binary Search Trees
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...

Smoothed Analysis of Binary Search Trees and Quicksort Under Additive Noise
Binary search trees are a fundamental data structure and their height plays a key role in the analysis of divide-and-conquer algorithms like quicksort. Their worst-case height is l...

The total path length of split trees
We consider the model of random trees introduced by Devroye [SIAM J Comput 28, 409– 432, 1998]. The model encompasses many important randomized algorithms and data structures. T...

Self-Organizing Data Structures
We survey results on self-organizing data structures for the search problem and concentrate on two very popular structures: the unsorted linear list, and the binary search tree. Fo...
