We study the class structure of finite-alphabet Markov chains with arbitrary memory length. To capture the structural constraints induced by prohibited transitions, we introduce the skeleton of a higher-order transition kernel, defined as a…

We show how a few modifications to the red-black trees allow for $O(1)$ worst-case update time (once the position of the inserted or deleted element is known). The resulting structure is based on relaxing some of the properties of the…
