We propose and define a recursive Merkle structure with q-mercurial commitments, in order to create a concise B-Merkle tree. This Merkle B-Tree builds on previous work of q-ary Merkle trees which use concise, constant size, q-mercurial…

A filter is a widely used data structure for storing an approximation of a given set $S$ of elements from some universe $U$ (a countable set).It represents a superset $S'\supseteq S$ that is ''close to $S$'' in the sense that for $x\not\in…

Recent work has suggested enhancing Bloom filters by using a pre-filter, based on applying machine learning to determine a function that models the data set the Bloom filter is meant to represent. Here we model such learned Bloom filters,,…

Tangle structure trees, introduced in [3], offer a unified data structure that displays all the tangles of a graph or data set together with certificates for the non-existence of any other tangles, either locally or overall. In this paper…
