The document discusses various aspects of balanced binary search trees, including: 1) Const keyword can be used to mark parameters and return values as constant to prevent unintended modification. 2) AVL trees are binary search trees where the heights of left and right subtrees differ by at most 1. 3) For a binary search tree to be balanced, the heights of left and right subtrees should be close to equal to avoid a skewed or degenerate tree structure.
