An O(loglog n)-Competitive Binary Search Tree with Optimal Worst-Case Access Times

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

We present the zipper tree, an O(log⁡log⁡n)O(\log \log n)-competitive online binary search tree that performs each access in O(log⁡n)O(\log n) worst-case time. This shows that for binary search trees, optimal worst-case access time and near-optimal amortized access time can be guaranteed simultaneously.
