Simple example of an R-tree for 2D rectangles Visualization of an R*-tree for 3D points using ELKI (the cubes are directory pages). R-trees are tree data structures used for spatial access methods, i.e., for indexing multi-dimensional information such as geographical coordinates, rectangles or polygons.
In data processing R*-trees are a variant of R-trees used for indexing spatial information. R*-trees have slightly higher construction cost than standard R-trees, as the data may need to be reinserted; but the resulting tree will usually have a better query performance. Like the standard R-tree, it can store both point and spatial data.
The performance of R-trees depends on the quality of the algorithm that clusters the data rectangles on a node. Hilbert R-trees use space-filling curves, and specifically the Hilbert curve, to impose a linear ordering on the data rectangles. There are two types of Hilbert R-trees: one for static databases, and one for dynamic databases. In both ...
In geometric group theory, the Rips machine is a method of studying the action of groups on R-trees.It was introduced in unpublished work of Eliyahu Rips in about 1991.. An R-tree is a uniquely arcwise-connected metric space in which every arc is isometric to some real interval.
The version given here is that proven by Nash-Williams; Kruskal's formulation is somewhat stronger. All trees we consider are finite. Given a tree T with a root, and given vertices v, w, call w a successor of v if the unique path from the root to w contains v, and call w an immediate successor of v if additionally the path from v to w contains no other vertex.
These examples reduce easily to a single recursive function by inlining the forest function in the tree function, which is commonly done in practice: directly recursive functions that operate on trees sequentially process the value of the node and recurse on the children within one function, rather than dividing these into two separate functions.
[46] [47] The use of R-trees, together with Bass–Serre theory, is a key tool in the work of Sela on solving the isomorphism problem for (torsion-free) word-hyperbolic groups, Sela's version of the JSJ-decomposition theory and the work of Sela on the Tarski Conjecture for free groups and the theory of limit groups.

A modern way of approaching this problem is to consider a particular type of maximal function, which we construct as follows: Denote S n−1 ⊂ R n to be the unit sphere in n-dimensional space. Define T e δ ( a ) {\displaystyle T_{e}^{\delta }(a)} to be the cylinder of length 1, radius δ > 0, centered at the point a ∈ R n , and whose long ...
