Re: 5, trees are fairly widely used (though not as most CS people would implement them) with Morton or H index ordering in things like the Fast Multipole and Barnes Hut algorithms which reduce O(n^2) pair wise ops to O(n) and O(n log n) respectively. BH more common in Astro, FMM in chemical molecular dynamics.
