The Height of Binary Search Trees
نویسنده
چکیده
HAL is a multidisciplinary open access archive for the deposit and dissemination of scientific research documents, whether they are published or not. The documents may come from teaching and research institutions in France or abroad, or from public or private research centers. L'archive ouverte pluridisciplinaire HAL, est destinée au dépôt età la diffusion de documents scientifiques de niveau recherche, publiés ou non, ´ emanant desétablissements d'enseignement et de recherche français oú etrangers, des laboratoires publics ou privés. q–binary search trees are obtained from words, equipped with the geometric distribution instead of permutations. The average and variance of the height are computed, based on random words of length n, as well as a Gaussian limit law.

Profile and Height of Random Binary Search Trees
The purpose of this article is to survey recent results on distributional properties of random binary search trees. In particular we consider the profile and the height.
متن کاملProbabilistic analysis of the asymmetric digital search trees
In this paper, by applying three functional operators the previous results on the (Poisson) variance of the external profile in digital search trees will be improved. We study the profile built over $n$ binary strings generated by a memoryless source with unequal probabilities of symbols and use a combinatorial approach for studying the Poissonized variance, since the probability distribution o...

متن کاملSmoothed Analysis of the Height of Binary Search Trees
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 distribution is only logarithmic. The exact value is one of the best studied problems in average case complexity. We investigate what happens in between by analysing the smoothed height of binary search trees: random...
