Inorder Traversal of a Binary Heap and its Inversion in Optimal Time and Space
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper we derive a linear-time, constant-space algorithm to construct a binary heap whose inorder traversal equals a given sequence. We do so in two steps. First, we invert a program that computes the inorder traversal of a binary heap, using the proof rules for program inversion by W. Chen and J.T. Udding. This results in a linear-time solution in terms of binary trees. Subsequently, we data-refine this program to a constant-space solution in terms of linked structures.

An improved algorithm to reconstruct a binary tree from its inorder and postorder traversals
It is well-known that, given inorder traversal along with one of the preorder or postorder traversals of a binary tree, the tree can be determined uniquely. Several algorithms have been proposed to reconstruct a binary tree from its inorder and preorder traversals. There is one study to reconstruct a binary tree from its inorder and postorder traversals, and this algorithm takes running time of...

متن کاملA novel algorithm to determine the leaf (leaves) of a binary tree from its preorder and postorder traversals
Binary trees are essential structures in Computer Science. The leaf (leaves) of a binary tree is one of the most significant aspects of it. In this study, we prove that the order of a leaf (leaves) of a binary tree is the same in the main tree traversals; preorder, inorder, and postorder. Then, we prove that given the preorder and postorder traversals of a binary tree, the leaf (leaves) of a bi...
متن کاملRebuilding a Tree from Its Traversals: A Case Study of Program Inversion
Given the inorder and preorder traversal of a binary tree whose labels are all distinct, one can reconstruct the tree. This article examines two existing algorithms for rebuilding the tree in a functional framework, using existing theory on function inversion. We also present a new, although complicated, algorithm by trying another possibility not explored before.
متن کاملReconstructing a Binary Tree from its Traversals in Doubly
We consider the following problem. For a binary tree T = (V; E) where V = f1; 2; :::; ng, given its inorder traversal and either its preorder or its postorder traversal, reconstruct the binary tree. We present a new parallel algorithm for this problem. Our algorithm requires O(n) space. The main idea of our algorithm is to reduce the reconstruction process to merging two sorted sequences. With ...
