TL;DR: An algorithm for generating the impossible pair (IP) constrained path in a program, if any, is described, the complexity of the algorithm is polynomial in the number of vertices and thenumber of IP constrained paths actually existing in the program when the program digraph is acyclic.

Abstract: computer science. The function f arises in connection with random binary search trees. We shall only sketch the basic definitions and relevant background material, referring the reader to [2] or [3] for a comprehensive presentation. A binary tree is a finite set of nodes that is either empty or consists of a root and two disjoint binary trees called the left and right subtrees of the root. It is customary to draw such a tree as

TL;DR: The distribution of the weight-balance factors of the internal nodes in a random tree built by binary search and insertion is determined and it is shown that in such a tree about 72% of all internal nodes have weight balance factors lying between $$1 - \sqrt 2 /2$$ and $$\sqrt2 /2$ .
Abstract: A method formulated by Yao and used by Brown has yielded bounds on the fraction of nodes with specified properties in trees bult by a sequence of random internal nodes in a random tree built by binary search and insertion, and show that in such a tree about bounds better than those now known. We then apply these methods to weight-balanced trees and to a type of “weakly balanced” trees. We determine the distribution of the weight-balance factors of the internal nodes in a random tree built by binary search and insertion and show that in such a tree about 72% of all internal nodes have weight balance factors lying between 1−2√/2 and 2√/2.
