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]. For (1 + ε)-approxima...
Computation performed in many typical aspects involve side effects. In a purely functional setting, adding such aspects using techniques such as monadification will generally lea...

: Almost ten years ago, Ralf Hinze has written a functional pearl on how to derive backtracking functionality for the purely functional programming language Haskell. In these notes...
Many properties of parametric, polymorphic functions can be determined simply by inspection of their types. Such results are usually proven using Reynolds's parametricity the...
We introduce a framework for managing as a whole the space of a narrowing computation. The aim of our framework is to find a finite representation of an infinite narrowing space...
