Title
A new proof of the Garsia-Wachs algorithm
Abstract
A new proof of correctness for the Garsia-Wachs algorithm is presented. Like the well-known Hu-Tucker algorithm, the Garsia-Wachs algorithm constructs minimum cost binary trees in O(n log n) time. The new proof has a simpler structure and is free of the difficult inductions of the original.
