What is Collision Resolution in Hash Tables about?

Hash tables resolve collisions using chaining by storing all elements that hash to the same slot in a linked list at that slot. Searching an element takes average time O(1/α) where α is the load factor. Insertion takes worst-case O(1) time by adding to the front of the appropriate list. Deletion takes O(1) time if lists are doubly linked. The analysis assumes a uniform hash function that distributes elements randomly among slots.
