These lecture notes show that linear probing takes expected constant time if the hash function is 5-independent. This result was first proved by Pagh et al. [STOC'07,SICOMP'09]. The simple proof here is essentially taken from [Patrascu and…

We show that linear probing requires 5-independent hash functions for expected constant-time performance, matching an upper bound of [Pagh et al. STOC'07]. More precisely, we construct a 4-independent hash functions yielding expected…

We introduce linear probing hashing schemes that construct a hash table of size $n$, with constant load factor $\alpha$, on which the worst-case unsuccessful search time is asymptotically almost surely $O(\log \log n)$. The schemes employ…

First introduced in 1954, linear probing is one of the oldest data structures in computer science, and due to its unrivaled data locality, it continues to be one of the fastest hash tables in practice. It is widely believed and taught,…

At CCS 2015 Naveed et al. presented first attacks on efficiently searchable encryption, such as deterministic and order-preserving encryption. These plaintext guessing attacks have been further improved in subsequent work, e.g. by Grubbs et…

It is shown that for cuckoo hashing with a stash as proposed by Kirsch, Mitzenmacher, and Wieder (2008) families of very simple hash functions can be used, maintaining the favorable performance guarantees: with stash size $s$ the…

Iterated hash functions process strings recursively, one character at a time. At each iteration, they compute a new hash value from the preceding hash value and the next character. We prove that iterated hashing can be pairwise independent,…

We describe a variant of linear probing hash tables that never moves elements and thus supports referential integrity, i.e., pointers to elements remain valid while this element is in the hash table. This is achieved by the folklore method…

Linear-probing hash tables have been classically believed to support insertions in time $\Theta(x^2)$, where $1 - 1/x$ is the load factor of the hash table. Recent work by Bender, Kuszmaul, and Kuszmaul (FOCS'21), however, has added a new…

Many applications use sequences of n consecutive symbols (n-grams). Hashing these n-grams can be a performance bottleneck. For more speed, recursive hash families compute hash values by updating previous values. We prove that recursive hash…

The $c$-approximate Near Neighbor problem in high dimensional spaces has been mainly addressed by Locality Sensitive Hashing (LSH), which offers polynomial dependence on the dimension, query time sublinear in the size of the dataset, and…

This paper presents an efficient wait-free resizable hash table. To achieve high throughput at large core counts, our algorithm is specifically designed to retain the natural parallelism of concurrent hashing, while providing wait-free…

Randomized algorithms are often enjoyed for their simplicity, but the hash functions employed to yield the desired probabilistic guarantees are often too complicated to be practical. Here we survey recent results on how simple hashing…

Sorting and hashing are two completely different concepts in computer science, and appear mutually exclusive to one another. Hashing is a search method using the data as a key to map to the location within memory, and is used for rapid…

We present an efficient lock-free algorithm for parallel accessible hash tables with open addressing, which promises more robust performance and reliability than conventional lock-based implementations. ``Lock-free'' means that it is…

Identifying independence between two random variables or correlated given their samples has been a fundamental problem in Statistics. However, how to do so in a space-efficient way if the number of states is large is not quite well-studied.…

Label information is widely used in hashing methods because of its effectiveness of improving the precision. The existing hashing methods always use two different projections to represent the mutual regression between hash codes and class…

Locality-sensitive hashing (LSH) is an effective randomized technique widely used in many machine learning tasks. The cost of hashing is proportional to data dimensions, and thus often the performance bottleneck when dimensionality is high…

Research efforts of the past fifty years have led to a development of linear integer programming as a mature discipline of mathematical optimization. Such a level of maturity has not been reached when one considers nonlinear systems subject…

Hash table search strategies have remained a pivotal area of inquiry in computer science over the past several decades. A prevailing viewpoint asserts that random probing stands as the optimal method for open-addressing hash tables.…
