TLDR
A data structure for representing a set of n items from a universe of m items, which uses space n+o(n) and accommodates membership queries in constant time and is easy to implement.
Abstract
A data structure for representing a set of n items from a umverse of m items, which uses space n + o(n) and accommodates membership queries m constant time is described. Both the data structure and the query algorithm are easy to ~mplement.

Comparing Elastic-Degenerate Strings: Algorithms, Lower Bounds, and Applications

TL;DR: In this paper , it was shown that the ED string intersection problem is NP-complete for any constant ε > 0, unless the Strong Exponential-Time Hypothesis is false.

Improved deterministic parallel padded sorting

TL;DR: This work describes an algorithm that, with nk processors in the CRCW PRAM model, sorts the input array with padding o(1) using time O (logkn log*(logkn) + loglogk).

Algorithms for Determining the Cyclic Edge Connectivity of Cubic Graphs

TL;DR: By proof, by proof, the value of cyclic edge connectivity of some cubic graphs is directly got such that an algorithm determining the cyclic Edge connectivity of cubic graphs was improved and randomness was added to the algorithm determining cyclic fringe connectivity.

String indexing for top-k close consecutive occurrences

TL;DR: In this article , the problem of string indexing for top-k close consecutive occurrences (Sitcco) was studied, where a consecutive occurrence is a pair (i, j ) , i < j , such that P occurs at positions i and j in S and there is no occurrence of P between i and J , and their distance is defined as j − i .

Should Tables Be Sorted

TL;DR: It is shown that, in a rather general model including al1 the commonly-used schemes, $\lceil $ lg(n+l) $\rceil$ probes to the table are needed in the worst case, provided the key space is sufficiently large.

Storing a sparse table

TL;DR: This work proposes a good worst-case method for storing a static table of n entries, each an integer between 0 and N - 1, and analysis shows why a simpler algorithm used for compressing LR parsing tables works so well.

Perfect hashing functions: a single probe retrieving method for static sets

TL;DR: A refinement of hashing which allows retrieval of an item in a static table with a single probe is considered, and a rough comparison with ordinary hashing is given which shows that this method can be used conveniently in several practical applications.

Reciprocal hashing: a method for generating minimal perfect hashing functions

TL;DR: A method is presented for building minimal perfect hash functions, i.e., functions which allow single probe retrieval from minimally sized tables of identifier sets, and a proof of existence for minimalperfect hash functions of a special type (reciprocal type) is given.
