Abstract
We present a new finger search tree with O(1) worst-case update time and O(log log d) expected search time with high probability in the Random Access Machine (RAM) model of computation for a large class of input distributions. The parameter d represents the number of elements (distance) between the search element and an element pointed to by a finger, in a finger search tree that stores n elements. For the need of the analysis we model the updates by a "balls and bins" combinatorial game that is interesting in its own right as it involves insertions and deletions of balls according to an unknown distribution.
