Balanced Binary Search Trees
If the height of a binary tree is always O(log n), we can guarantee O(log n) performance for each search tree operation
Trees with a worst-case height of O(log n) are called balanced trees
An example of a balanced tree is AVL (Adelson-Velsky and Landis) tree
AVL Tree
Definition Binary tree. If T is a nonempty binary tree with TL and TR as
its left and right subtrees, then T is an AVL tree iff1. TL and TR are AVL trees, and
2. |hL – hR| 1 where hL and hR are the heights of TL and TR, respectively
AVL Search Trees
An AVL search tree is a binary search tree that is also an AVL tree

Which trees in Figure 14.2 are indexed AVL search trees?– (a) and (b)
Properties of AVL Tree
1. The height of an AVL tree with n nodes is O(log n)
2. For every value of n, n 0, there exists an AVL tree
3. An n-node AVL search tree can be searched in O(height) = O(log n) time
4. A new node can be inserted into an n-node AVL search tree so that the result is an n+1 node AVL tree and insertion can be done in O(log n) time
5. A node can be deleted from an n-node AVL search tree, n>0, so that the result is an n-1 node AVL tree and deletion can be done in O(log n) time
Balance Factor
AVL trees are normally represented using the linked representation
To facilitate insertion and deletion, a balance factor (bf) is associated with each node
The balance factor bf(x) of a node x is defined asheight(xleftChild) – height(xrightChild)
Balance factor of each node in an AVL tree must be –1, 0, or 1
See Figure 15.1 for examples

Searching an AVL Search Trees
To search an AVL search tree, we can use Program 14.4 (i.e., the code for searching a binary search tree) without any change
What would be the search time complexity?– O(log n)
Inserting into an AVL Search Trees
If we use the strategy of Program 14.5 to insert an element into an AVL search tree, the result may not be an AVL tree
That is, the tree may become unbalanced If the tree becomes unbalanced, we must adjust the tree to
restore balance - this adjustment is called rotation See the example in Figure 15.2 Read the observations about the unbalanced tree that
results from an insertion on pages 568-569

• Where is 9 going to be inserted into?• After the insertion, is the tree still an AVL search tree? (i.e., still balanced?)
Imbalance Types
After an insertion, when the balance factor of node A is –2 or 2, the node A is one of the following four imbalance types
1. LL: new node is in the left subtree of the left subtree of A
2. LR: new node is in the right subtree of the left subtree of A
3. RR: new node is in the right subtree of the right subtree of A
4. RL: new node is in the left subtree of the right subtree of A
Rotation
Definition To switch children and parents among two or three
adjacent nodes to restore balance of a tree. A rotation may change the depth of some nodes,
but does not change their relative ordering.
Left Rotation
Definition In a binary search tree, pushing a node A down and to the
left to balance the tree. A's right child replaces A, and the right child's left child
becomes A's right child.

AVL Rotations To balance an unbalanced AVL tree (after an insertion), we
may need to perform one of the following rotations: LL, RR, LR, RL
Figure 15.3 Inserting into an AVL search tree
An LL Rotation
Figure 15.4 An LL Rotation
An LR Rotation
Figure 15.5 An LR Rotation
Single and Double Rotations Single rotations: the transformations done to correct LL
and RR imbalances Double rotations: the transformations done to correct LR
and RL imbalances The transformation to correct LR imbalance can be
achieved by an RR rotation followed by an LL rotation The transformation to correct RL imbalance can be
achieved by an LL rotation followed by an RR rotation (do Exercise 15.13)
Exercise 15.13 – LR Rotation
• Figure (b) shows the tree after an RR rotation at node B
• Figure (c) shows the result of performing an LL rotation at node A of the tree of Figure (b).
• The resulting tree is the same as that shown in Figure 15.5 (c).

• What are the new balance factors for 20, 25, 29?• What type of imbalance do we have?• RR imbalance new node is in the right subtree of right subtree of node 20 (node with bf = -2) what rotation do we need?• What would the left subtree of 30 look like after RR rotation?

Deletion from an AVL Search Tree
To delete an element from an AVL search tree, we can use Program 14.6
Deletion of a node may also produce an imbalance Imbalance incurred by deletion is classified into
the types R0, R1, R-1, L0, L1, and L-1 Rotation is also needed for rebalancing Read the observations after deleting a node from an AVL
search tree Read Section 15.1.6 for deletion from an AVL search tree
