A left-leaning red-black tree satisfies all the properties of a red-black tree: Every node is either red or black. A NIL node is considered black. A red node does not have a red child. Every path from a given node to any of its descendant NIL nodes goes through the same number of black nodes. The root is black (by convention).
In computer science, a red–black tree is a self-balancing binary search tree data structure noted for fast storage and retrieval of ordered information. The nodes in a red-black tree hold an extra "color" bit, often drawn as red and black, which help ensure that the tree is always approximately balanced.

In AVL trees, each deletion may require a logarithmic number of tree rotation operations, while red–black trees have simpler deletion operations that use only a constant number of tree rotations. WAVL trees, like red–black trees, use only a constant number of tree rotations, and the constant is even better than for red–black trees. [1] [2]
AA trees are named after their originator, Swedish computer scientist Arne Andersson. [1] AA trees are a variation of the red–black tree, a form of binary search tree which supports efficient addition and deletion of entries. Unlike red–black trees, red nodes on an AA tree can only be added as a right subchild.
