What is Space-efficient Huffman codes revisited about?

A canonical Huffman code is an optimal prefix-free compression code whose codewords enumerated in the lexicographical order form a list of binary words in non-decreasing lengths. Gagie et al. (2015) gave a representation of this coding capable of encoding and decoding a symbol in constant worst-case time. It uses σ lg ⁡ l max + o ( σ ) + O ( l max 2 ) bits of space, where σ and l max are the alphabet size and maximum codeword length, respectively. We refine their representation to reduce the space complexity to σ lg ⁡ l max ( 1 + o ( 1 ) ) bits while preserving the constant encode and decode times. Our algorithmic idea can be applied to any canonical code.
