The document discusses binary search trees, which are binary trees that store keys in nodes such that all keys in the left subtree of a node are less than the node's key and all keys in the right subtree are greater. This property allows searching, insertion, and deletion operations to be performed efficiently in O(log N) time on average. The document covers tree terminology, traversal methods, and implementations of searching, inserting, deleting, finding the minimum/maximum keys, and maintaining the binary search tree properties during operations.
