A Simple Hash Class with Strong Randomness Properties in Graphs and Hypergraphs
arXiv: Data Structures and Algorithms(2016)
摘要
We study randomness properties of graphs and hypergraphs generated by simple hash functions. Several hashing applications can be analyzed by studying the structure of d-uniform random (d-partite) hypergraphs obtained from a set S of n keys and d randomly chosen hash functions h_1,…,h_d by associating each key x∈ S with a hyperedge {h_1(x),…, h_d(x)}. Often it is assumed that h_1,…,h_d exhibit a high degree of independence. We present a simple construction of a hash class whose hash functions have small constant evaluation time and can be stored in sublinear space. We devise general techniques to analyze the randomness properties of the graphs and hypergraphs generated by these hash functions, and we show that they can replace other, less efficient constructions in cuckoo hashing (with and without stash), the simulation of a uniform hash function, the construction of a perfect hash function, generalized cuckoo hashing and different load balancing scenarios.
