Let be an associative binary operator, and let a be an attribute maintained in each node

Question:

Let ⊗ be an associative binary operator, and let a be an attribute maintained in each node of a red-black tree. Suppose that we want to include in each node x an additional attribute f such that x.f = x1.a ⊗ x2.a ⊗ …⊗ xm.a, where x1. x2, . . . ,xm is the inorder listing of nodes in the subtree rooted at x. Show how to update the f attributes in O(1) time after a rotation. Modify your argument slightly to apply it to the size attributes in order-statistic trees.
