Relaxed Red-Black Trees with Group Updates.
Kim S. Larsen.
Acta Informatica, 38(8): 565-586, 2002.
In search trees with relaxed balance, updating and rebalancing have been uncoupled such that rebalancing can be controlled separately. Recently, it has been shown how an advanced update such as an insertion of an entire tree into a relaxed multi-way structure can be implemented efficiently. This indicates a similar result for binary trees by a naive interpretation of small multi-way tree nodes as binary configurations. However, this would imply that nodes must be connected by level links, which significantly deviates from the usual structural implementations of binary trees. In this paper, we show that it is possible to define binary schemes which are both natural and efficient.

The same as the publisher's version, when the publisher permits. Otherwise, the author's last version before the publisher's copyright; this is often exactly the same, but sometimes fonts, page numbers, figure numbers, etc. are different. It may also be a full version. However, it is safe to read this version, and at the same time cite the official version, as long as references to concrete locations, numbered theorems, etc. inside the article are avoided.
