As mentioned previously, red-black trees are among the most popular implementations in standard libraries. As always, we have a binary search tree, and then each node is given \textit{red} or \textit{black} colour. A red-black tree is kept balanced by enforcing the following set of rules~\cite{rbtree}:
\begin{enumerate}
\item External nodes are black; internal nodes may be red or black
\item For each internal node, all paths from it to external nodes contain the same number of black nodes
\item No path from an internal node to an external node contains two red nodes in a row
\end{enumerate}~\cite{rbtree}
Given this knowledge, we can safely deduce the following relation between the height of the red-black tree and nodes stored in it:
\item External nodes are black; internal nodes may be red or black.
\item For each internal node, all paths from it to external nodes contain the same number of black nodes.
\item No path from an internal node to an external node contains two red nodes in a row.
\end{enumerate}
Given this knowledge, we can safely deduce the following relation between the height of the red-black tree and nodes stored in it~\cite{cormen2009introduction}:
\[
\log_2{(n + 1)} \leq h \leq 2 \cdot \log_2{(n + 2)} - 2
\]\label{rb-height}~\cite{cormen2009introduction}
\]\label{rb-height}
where the lower bound is given by a perfect binary tree and upper bound by the minimal red-black tree.
There are also other variants of the red-black tree that are considered to be simpler for implementation, e.g. left-leaning red-black tree, as described by Sedgewick.

In case of the AVL trees rank represents height. Here we can notice a very smart way of using the \textit{(i, j) node} definition. If we go back to the definition and want to be explicit about the nodes that are allowed with the \textit{AVL Rule}, then we get (1, 1), (1, 2) \textbf{or} (2, 1) nodes. However it is possible to find implementations of the AVL tree that allow leaning \textbf{to only one side} as opposed to the original requirements given by Adelson-Velsky and Landis. Forbidding interchangeability of (i, j) with (j, i) nodes would still yield AVL trees that lean to one side.

We have described in \autoref{chap:sb-bst} other common self-balanced binary search trees to be able to draw analogies and explain differences between them. Given the boundaries of height for red-black and AVL tree, we can safely assume that the AVL is more strict with regards to the self-balancing than the red-black tree. Let us show how does WAVL fit among them. \textit{Haeupler et al.} present following bounds:
\[ h \leq k \leq 2h \text{ and } k \leq 2 \log_2{n} \]~\cite{wavl}
