An exponential tree is almost identical to a binary search tree , with the exception that the dimension of the tree is not the same at all levels. In a normal binary search tree, each node has a dimension d of 1, and has 2 sup d sup children. In an exponential tree, the dimension equals the depth of the node, with the root node having a d 1. So the second level can hold two nodes, the third can hold eight nodes, the fourth 64 nodes, and so on. Layout Exponential Tree can also refer to a method of laying out the nodes of a tree structure in n typically 2 dimensional space. Nodes are placed closer to a baseline than their parent node, by a factor equal to the number of child nodes of that parent node or by some sort of weighting , and scaled according to how close they are. Thus, no matter how deep the tree may be, there is always room for more nodes, and the geometry of a subtree is unrelated to its position in the whole tree. The whole has a fractal structure. In fact, this method of laying out a tree can be viewed as an application of the upper half plane model of hyperbolic geometry , with isometries limited to translations only.
