Abstract
A new balanced multidimensional tree structure called a k -dimensional balanced binary tree, where k is a positive integer, is presented and integrated. It is shown that the data structure can be used to manage a set of n k -dimensional data items such that access, insertion, and deletion operations can be supported in O(log n +k ) time. The data structure is a multidimensional generalization of a balanced binary tree and retains much of the simplicity and efficiency of the base structure. The data structure requires O(k ) single rotations for each insertion or deletion operation
