Binary tree sort, in particular, is likely to be slower than merge sort, quicksort, or heapsort, because of the tree-balancing overhead as well as cache access patterns.) Self-balancing BSTs are flexible data structures, in that it's easy to extend them to efficiently record additional information or perform new operations.
A weight-balanced tree is a binary search tree that stores the sizes of subtrees in the nodes. That is, a node has fields key, of any ordered type; value (optional, only for mappings) left, right, pointer to node; size, of type integer. By definition, the size of a leaf (typically represented by a nil pointer) is zero.
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.
Fig. 1: AVL tree with balance factors (green) In computer science, an AVL tree (named after inventors Adelson-Velsky and Landis) is a self-balancing binary search tree. In an AVL tree, the heights of the two child subtrees of any node differ by at most one; if at any time they differ by more than one, rebalancing is done to restore this property.
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 ...

AVL tree, red–black tree, and splay tree, kinds of binary search tree data structures that use rotations to maintain balance. Associativity of a binary operation means that performing a tree rotation on it does not change the final result. The Day–Stout–Warren algorithm balances an unbalanced BST. Tamari lattice, a partially ordered set ...
A left-leaning red–black (LLRB) tree is a type of self-balancing binary search tree, introduced by Robert Sedgewick. It is a variant of the red–black tree and guarantees the same asymptotic complexity for operations, but is designed to be easier to implement. [1]
