Jun 8, 2017 · We prove that when we use h(x) in hashing with chaining to insert n elements into a table of size n the expected length of the longest chain is ...

These linear hash functions can easily be altered to be affine hash functions that satisfy Property. (1) as well showing that even a combination of Property. (1) ...

It is known that 5-independent hashing provides good expected performance in applications such as linear probing and second moment estimation for data streams.

Linear Hashing Is Awesome. Abstract: The most classic textbook hash function, e.g. taught in CLRS [MIT Press'09], is h(x) = ((ax + b) mod p) mod m, (◊) where x, ...

Linear hashing of the plane collapses all straight lines of a random direction. Thus, a bad set in the plane must contain many points on at least one line in ...

No hash function can improve on the expected query time, but the upper bound on the expected length of the longest chain is not known to be tight for (◊).

Abstract. We consider the hash function $h(x) = ((ax+b) \bmod p) \bmod n$ where $a,b$ are chosen uniformly at random from $\{0,1,\ldots,p-1\}$.
