I have a formal analysis and all the core algorithms related to the 
Persistent Vector in Chapter 2 of my thesis: http://hypirion.com/thesis.pdf

Bagwell's original paper on the Array Mapped Trie, which is the basis for 
the Persistent Hash Map implementation, is also a good read and probably 
more approachable 
paper: http://infoscience.epfl.ch/record/64394/files/triesearches.pdf

And, as already mentioned, my informal blogpost series about them is over 
at http://hypirion.com/musings/understanding-persistent-vector-pt-1

I really like Okasaki's book "Purely Functional Data Structures", but if 
you're only interested in the Persistent Vector and Persistent Hash Map, 
then I think it would be overkill to read it. Variants of them are first 
described in chapters 9-10. Mohit gave a good link to understand the sorted 
sets and maps.
