Link-Cut trees use space: - nodes, each with constant fields - No edge storage needed (edges implicit in parent pointers) - Lazy flags and aggregates add constant overhead per node Compare to other structures: - HLD: but with segment trees, - Euler tour: for tour, segment tree adds - Link-Cut: total Link-Cut trees are space-efficient despite their power.
