Title: A Simpler Proof Of The Average Case Complexity Of Union-Find WithPath Compression

Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/877676· OSTI ID:877676

We present a modified union-find algorithm that represent the data in an array rather than the commonly used pointer-based data structures, and a simpler proof that the average case complexity of the union-find algorithm is linear.
