In a multiparty message-passing model of communication, there are $k$ players. Each player has a private input, and they communicate by sending messages to one another over private channels. While this model has been used extensively in…
We introduce the task of out-of-order membership to a formal language L, where the letters of a word w are revealed one by one in an adversarial order. The length |w| is known in advance, but the content of w is streamed as pairs (i, w[i]),…
We show several results related to interactive proof modes of communication complexity. First we show lower bounds for the QMA-communication complexity of the functions Inner Product and Disjointness. We describe a general method to prove…
Numbers-on-Forehead (NOF) communication model is a central model in communication complexity. As a restricted variant, one-way NOF model is of particular interest. Establishing strong one-way NOF lower bounds would imply circuit lower…
We investigate the complexity of deciding, given a multiplication table representing a semigroup S, a subset X of S and an element t of S, whether t can be expressed as a product of elements of X. It is well-known that this problem is…
The mathematical framework of quantum theory, though fundamentally distinct from classical physics, raises the question of whether quantum processes can be efficiently simulated using classical resources. For instance, a sender (Alice)…
We consider two decision problems in infinite groups. The first problem is Subgroup Intersection: given two finitely generated subgroups $\langle \mathcal{G} \rangle, \langle \mathcal{H} \rangle$ of a group $G$, decide whether the…
We obtain strict upper bounds on the bit transmission rate for communication of Classical bit codewords over Quantum channels. Albeit previous arguments in arXiv: 1804.01797 which have demonstrated that lower bounds can be shown to hold for…
Upper bounds on the communication complexity of finding the nearest lattice point in a given lattice $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ was considered in earlier works~\cite{VB:2017}, for a two party, interactive communication model. Here we…
We propose a linear algebraic method, rooted in the spectral properties of graphs, that can be used to prove lower bounds in communication complexity. Our proof technique effectively marries spectral bounds with information-theoretic…
We consider the scenario where Alice wants to send a secret (classical) $n$-bit message to Bob using a classical key, and where only one-way transmission from Alice to Bob is possible. In this case, quantum communication cannot help to…
The communication complexity of a quantum channel is the minimal amount of classical communication required for classically simulating a process of state preparation, transmission through the channel and subsequent measurement. It…
We consider the Membership and the Half-Space Reachability problems for matrices in dimensions two and three. Our first main result is that the Membership Problem is decidable for finitely generated sub-semigroups of the Heisenberg group…
This paper considers a problem of quantum communication between parties that are connected through a network of quantum channels. The model in this paper assumes that there is no prior entanglement shared among any of the parties, but that…
Superdense coding uses entanglement as a resource to communicate classical information securely through quantum channels. A superdense coding method is optimal when its capacity reaches Holevo bound. We show that for optimality, maximal…
We introduce and study the communication complexity of computing the inner product of two vectors, where the input is restricted w.r.t. a norm $N$ on the space $\mathbb{R}^n$. Here, Alice and Bob hold two vectors $v,u$ such that $\|v\|_N\le…
We study an extension of the standard two-party communication model in which Alice and Bob hold probability distributions $p$ and $q$ over domains $X$ and $Y$, respectively. Their goal is to estimate \[ \mathbb{E}_{x \sim p,\, y \sim…
Given the increasing demand from wireless applications, designing energy-efficient group communication protocols is of great importance to multi-hop wireless networks. A group communication session involves a set of member nodes, each of…
We present a linear program for the one-way version of the partition bound (denoted $\mathsf{prt}^1_\varepsilon(f)$). We show that it characterizes one-way randomized communication complexity $\mathsf{R}_\varepsilon^1(f)$ with shared…
Despite the apparent similarity between shared randomness and shared entanglement in the context of Communication Complexity, our understanding of the latter is not as good as of the former. In particular, there is no known "entanglement…
