Research Type Theoretical We consider this problem in the fully dynamic model, i.e., under insertions and deletions of points, for the case that the metric space has a bounded doubling dimension dim. We utilize a hierarchical data structure to maintain the points and their neighborhoods, which enables us to efficiently find the clusters. In particular, our data structure can be queried at any time to generate a (3 + ε)-approximate solution for input values of k and z in worst-case query time ε O(dim)k log n log log , where is the ratio between the maximum and minimum distance between two points in P. Moreover, it allows insertion/deletion of a point in worst-case update time ε O(dim) log n log .
