A splay tree is a data structure invented by Sleator and Tarjan [94, 100] for maintaining a set of elements drawn from a totally ordered set and allowing membership testing, insertions, and deletions (among other operations) at an amortized cost of O(log n) per operation. The most interesting aspect of the structure is that, unlike balanced tree schemes such as 2–3 trees or AVL trees, it is not necessary to rebalance the tree explicitly after every operation—it happens automatically.
