In Section 2, we have exhibited an upper bound δ(T , T ) of the rotation distance d(T , T ) using ordinal tools. According to the above theorem, an other upper bound is given by δ(f (T ), f (T )). ...

Involve. A Journal of Mathematics
Edge-flip distance between triangulations of polygons is equivalent to rotation distance between rooted binary trees. Both distances measure the extent of similarity of configurations. ...
The best known exact universal upper bounds on rotation distance arise from measuring the maximum total valence of a vertex in the corresponding triangulation pair obtained by a duality construction. ...
Rotations in binary trees correspond to edge-flip moves in such triangulations of polygons, so the rotation distance between two rooted ordered binary trees corresponds exactly to the edge-flip distance ...
