Abstract: We consider here the probabilistic analysis of the number of descendants and the number
of ascendants of a given internal node in a random search tree. The performance of several
important algorithms on search trees is closely related to these quantities. For instance, the cost
of a successful search is proportional to the number of ascendants of the sought element. On the
other hand, the probabilistic behavior of the number of descendants is relevant for the analysis of
paged data structures... (Update)
