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...
Total path length, or search cost, for a rooted tree is defined as the sum of all root-to-node distances. Let Tn be the total path length for a random recursive tree of order n. M...
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 present a new finger search tree with O(1) worst-case update time and O(log log d) expected search time with high probability in the Random Access Machine (RAM) model of comput...

Abstract. Four local search algorithms are investigated for the phylogenetic tree reconstruction problem under the Maximum Parsimony criterion. A new subtree swapping neighborhood ...
