Abstract

Quick proofs are given for the characterization (due to Schay, Raver, Hanan, and Palermo) of the collision distance of a linear hashing function and for a dual function (called the restriction distance), which relates to the accessibility of addresses by sets of keys and the uniform distribution of sets of keys over addresses.
