چکیده

Lindell, S., An analysis of fixed-point queries on binary trees, Theoretical Computer Science 85 (1991) 75-95. The presence of ordering appears to play an essential role in the logical expressibility of polynomialtime queries on finite structures. By examining the expressibility and complexity of inductive queries on the class of complete unordered binary trees, we are able to show that the ability to calculate cardinality is strictly less powerful than the assumption of order.

A Perron Iteration for the Solution of a Quadratic Vector Equation Arising in Markovian

We propose a novel numerical method for solving a quadratic vector equation arising in Markovian binary trees. The numerical method consists of a fixed-point iteration, expressed by means of the Perron vectors of a sequence of nonnegative matrices. A theoretical convergence analysis is performed. The proposed method outperforms the existing methods for close-to-critical problems.

Partial Match Queries in Relaxed K-dt trees

The study of partial match queries on random hierarchical multidimensional data structures dates back to Ph. Flajolet and C. Puech’s 1986 seminal paper on partial match retrieval. It was not until recently that fixed (as opposed to random) partial match queries were studied for random relaxed K-d trees, random standard K-d trees, and random 2-dimensional quad trees. Based on those results it se...

Proximity Matching Using Fixed-Queries Trees

We present a new data structure, called the xed-queries tree, for the problem of nding all elements of a xed set that are close, under some distance function, to a query element. Fixed-queries trees can be used for any distance function, not necessarily even a metric, as long as it satisses the triangle inequality. We give an analysis of several performance parameters of xed-queries trees and e...

Intervals of balanced binary trees in the Tamari lattice

We show that the set of balanced binary trees is closed by interval in the Tamari lattice. We establish that the intervals [T, T ′] where T and T ′ are balanced binary trees are isomorphic as posets to a hypercube. We introduce synchronous grammars that allow to generate tree-like structures and obtain fixed-point functional equations to enumerate these. We also introduce imbalance tree pattern...
