-Binary Merkle Tree Hash is a hash function over arbitrary datachunks of limited size
+Binary Merkle Tree Hash is a hash function over arbitrary datachunks of limited size.

+of the underlying chunk using any base hash function (e.g., keccak 256 SHA3).
+Chunks with data shorter than the fixed size are hashed as if they had zero padding.
BMT hash is used as the chunk hash function in swarm which in turn is the basis for the
128 branching swarm hash http://swarm-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/architecture.html#swarm-hash
The BMT is optimal for providing compact inclusion proofs, i.e. prove that a
-segment is a substring of a chunk starting at a particular offset
+segment is a substring of a chunk starting at a particular offset.
The size of the underlying segments is fixed to the size of the base hash (called the resolution
of the BMT hash), Using Keccak256 SHA3 hash is 32 bytes, the EVM word size to optimize for on-chain BMT verification
as well as the hash size optimal for inclusion proofs in the merkle tree of the swarm hash.
