If the tree is not empty, then we go down the root, and recursively go down the tree searching for the location to insert the new node. This traversal is guided by the comparison function. In this case, the node always replaces a NULL reference (left or right) of an external node in the tree i.e., the node is either made a left-child or a right ...
Deletion from an AVL tree may be carried out by rotating the node to be deleted down into a leaf node, and then pruning off that leaf node directly. Since at most log n nodes are rotated during the rotation into the leaf, and each AVL rotation takes constant time, the deletion process in total takes O(log n) time.
Weak AVL rule: all rank differences are 1 or 2, and all leaf nodes have rank 0. Note that weak AVL tree generalizes the AVL tree by allowing for 2,2 type node. A simple proof shows that a weak AVL tree can be colored in a way that represents a red-black tree. So in a sense, weak AVL tree combines the properties of AVL tree and red-black tree.
Join follows the right spine of t 1 until a node c which is balanced with t 2. At this point a new node with left child c, root k and right child t 2 is created to replace c. The new node may invalidate the balancing invariant. This can be fixed with rotations. The following is the join algorithms on different balancing schemes. The join ...
For example, leaf nodes by definition have no descendants, so given only a pointer to a leaf node no other node can be reached. A threaded tree adds extra information in some or all nodes, so that for any given single node the "next" node can be found quickly, allowing tree traversal without recursion and the extra storage (proportional to the ...
To insert into a 3-node, more work may be required depending on the location of the 3-node. If the tree consists only of a 3-node, the node is split into three 2-nodes with the appropriate keys and children. Insertion of a number in a 2–3 tree for 3 possible cases. If the target node is a 3-node whose parent is a 2-node, the key is inserted ...
Join follows the right spine of t 1 until a node c which is balanced with t 2. At this point a new node with left child c, root k and right child t 2 is created to replace c. The new node may invalidate the weight-balanced invariant. This can be fixed with a single or a double rotation assuming <
This is loosely similar to AVL trees, in that the actual rotations depend on 'balances' of nodes, but the means of determining the balance differs greatly. Since AVL trees check the balance value on every insertion/deletion, it is typically stored in each node; scapegoat trees are able to calculate it only as needed, which is only when a ...
