The entire Foundation Framework is what you are looking for. As for trees, you can look into NSTreeController.

Check out NSArray/NSMutableArray

There is no stack or queue, but that would be very easy to create based off NSMutableArray.

There is no Objective-C tree class, but check out CFTree. There are some public Cocoa wrappers around this.

Correction, there is no standard library for strictly the Objective-C language except what comes with C. Objective-C by its self (unlike C++) is a very very thin runtime built on the C language. Apple basically has their own "standard" library built with the OS that everybody uses (the NS* stuff).

You only need to worry about this if you want to compile the program for other *nix (Linux, BSD, solaris...) based OSs. If you do then you should look at GNUstep or SideStep for libraries on the *nix platforms.

(nobody cares about windows, so I won't even mention it)
