We consider the problem of finding a solution to a multivariate polynomial equation system of degree $d$ in $n$ variables over $\mathbb{F}_2$. For $d=2$, the best-known algorithm for the problem is by Bardet et al. [J. Complexity, 2013] and…

Given an unknown $n \times n$ matrix $A$ having non-negative entries, the \emph{inner product} (IP) oracle takes as inputs a specified row (or a column) of $A$ and a vector $v \in \mathbb{R}^{n}$, and returns their inner product. A…
