In this lecture, we explore advanced data structures and algorithms


that optimize performance for various computational tasks.
We cover trees, graphs, hashing, and specialized structures.

- Definition and properties
- Operations: search, insert, delete (O(h) time)

2.2 AVL Trees


- Height-balanced BST
- Rotations to maintain balance (single and double rotations)

2.3 Red-Black Trees


- Properties and color constraints
- Insertion and deletion algorithms
3. Graph Algorithms

3.1 Graph Representations


- Adjacency matrix vs adjacency list

3.2 Traversal Algorithms


- Depth-First Search (DFS)
- Breadth-First Search (BFS)

3.3 Shortest Path Algorithms

- Prim's Algorithm
4. Hashing and Hash Tables

4.1 Hash Functions

4.2 Collision Resolution


- Chaining
- Open addressing (linear probing, quadratic probing, double hashing)

4.3 Applications of Hash Tables


- Caches
- Symbol tables in compilers
5. Advanced Data Structures

5.1 Heaps
