  2. Lowest common ancestor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lowest_common_ancestor

    In this tree, the lowest common ancestor of the nodes x and y is marked in dark green. Other common ancestors are shown in light green. In graph theory and computer science, the lowest common ancestor (LCA) (also called least common ancestor) of two nodes v and w in a tree or directed acyclic graph (DAG) T is the lowest (i.e. deepest) node that has both v and w as descendants, where we define ...

  3. Range minimum query - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_minimum_query

    Range minimum query reduced to the lowest common ancestor problem.. Given an array A[1 … n] of n objects taken from a totally ordered set, such as integers, the range minimum query RMQ A (l,r) =arg min A[k] (with 1 ≤ l ≤ k ≤ r ≤ n) returns the position of the minimal element in the specified sub-array A[l …

  4. Range query (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_query_(computer_science)

    One such solution is based on the equivalence between this problem and the lowest common ancestor problem. The Cartesian tree of an array [,] has as root = {,, …,} and as left and right subtrees the Cartesian tree of [,] and the Cartesian tree of [+,] respectively.

  6. Tarjan's off-line lowest common ancestors algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarjan's_off-line_lowest...

    In computer science, Tarjan's off-line lowest common ancestors algorithm is an algorithm for computing lowest common ancestors for pairs of nodes in a tree, based on the union-find data structure. The lowest common ancestor of two nodes d and e in a rooted tree T is the node g that is an ancestor of both d and e and that has the greatest depth ...

  7. Binary search tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_search_tree

    Fig. 1: A binary search tree of size 9 and depth 3, with 8 at the root. In computer science, a binary search tree (BST), also called an ordered or sorted binary tree, is a rooted binary tree data structure with the key of each internal node being greater than all the keys in the respective node's left subtree and less than the ones in its right subtree.

  8. Finger search tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finger_search_tree

    To perform a finger search on a binary tree, the ideal way is to start from the finger, and search upwards to the root, until we reach the least common ancestor, [4] [5] also called the turning node, [3] of x and y, and then go downwards to find the element we're looking for. Determining if a node is the ancestor of another is non-trivial.

  9. Optimal binary search tree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optimal_binary_search_tree

    The splay tree is a form of binary search tree invented in 1985 by Daniel Sleator and Robert Tarjan on which the standard search tree operations run in (⁡ ()) amortized time. [10] It is conjectured to be dynamically optimal in the required sense. That is, a splay tree is believed to perform any sufficiently long access sequence X in time O ...
