Abstract

© Timothy M. Chan and Konstantinos Tsakalidis. We study a longstanding problem in computational geometry: 2-d dynamic orthogonal range reporting. We present a new data structure achieving O(log n/log log n+k) optimal query time and O(log2/3+o(1)n) update time (amortized) in the word RAM model, where n is the number of data points and k is the output size. This is the first improvement in over 10 years of Mortensen's previous result [SIAM J. Comput., 2006], which has O (log7/8/ϵn) update time for an arbitrarily small constant ϵ. In the case of 3-sided queries, our update time reduces to O (log1/2+ϵn), improving Wilkinson's previous bound [ESA 2014] of O(log2/3+ϵ).
