Title
An optimal algorithm for deleting the roof of a heap
Abstract
In this paper we give a small correction of the lower bound result for deleting the root of a heap in the article "Heaps on heaps" by Gonnet and Munro. We will do this by giving a slightly better algorithm and prove that it is optimal. The result is achieved by using basically the same technique as Gonnet and Munro.
