Abstract:

The unified property specifies that a comparison-based search structure can quickly find an element nearby a recently accessed element. Iacono [Iac01] introduced this property and developed a static search structure that achieves the bound. We present a dynamic search structure that achieves the unified property and that is simpler than Iacono's structure. Among all comparison-based dynamic search structures, our structure has the best proved bound on running time.
