Pseudo-Random Graphs and Bit Probe Schemes with One-Sided Error

We study probabilistic bit-probe schemes for the membership problem. Given a set A of at most n elements from the universe of size m we organize such a structure that queries of type “x∈A? ” can be answered very quickly. H. Buhrman, P.B. Miltersen, J. Radhakrishnan, and S. Venkatesh proposed a randomized bit-probe scheme that needs space of O(nlogm) bits. That scheme has a randomized algorithm processing queries; it needs to read only one randomly chosen bit from the memory to answer a query. For every x the answer is correct with high probability (with two-sided errors).
