Polynomial Identity Testing (PIT) is a fundamental computational problem. The famous depth-$4$ reduction result by Agrawal and Vinay (FOCS 2008) has made PIT for depth-$4$ circuits an enticing pursuit. A restricted depth-4 circuit computing…

Testing the unimodular equivalence of two full-dimensional integral simplices can be reduced to testing unimodular permutation (UP) equivalence of two nonsingular matrices. We conduct a systematic study of UP-equivalence, which leads to the…
