Detecting if a graph contains a $k$-Clique is one of the most fundamental problems in computer science. The asymptotically fastest algorithm runs in time $O(n^{\omega k/3})$, where $\omega$ is the exponent of Boolean matrix multiplication.…
In 1986, Saks and Wigderson conjectured that the largest separation between deterministic and zero-error randomized query complexity for a total boolean function is given by the function $f$ on $n=2^k$ bits defined by a complete binary tree…
A function f : {0, 1}^n -> {0, 1} is said to be k-monotone if it flips between 0 and 1 at most k times on every ascending chain. Such functions represent a natural generalization of (1-)monotone functions, and have been recently studied in…
The query model (or black-box model) has attracted much attention from the communities of both classical and quantum computing. Usually, quantum advantages are revealed by presenting a quantum algorithm that has a better query complexity…
We study the probability of making an error if, by querying an oracle a fixed number of times, we declare constant a randomly chosen n-bit Boolean function. We compare the classical and the quantum case, and we determine for how many…
In this paper we begin the study of some important Banach spaces of slice hyperholomorphic functions, namely the Bloch, Besov and weighted Bergman spaces, and we also consider the Dirichlet space, which is a Hilbert space. The importance of…
An ordered biclique partition of the complete graph $K_n$ on $n$ vertices is a collection of bicliques (i.e., complete bipartite graphs) such that (i) every edge of $K_n$ is covered by at least one and at most two bicliques in the…
We show that a Boolean degree $d$ function on the slice $\binom{[n]}{k}$ is a junta if $k \geq 2d$, and that this bound is sharp. We prove a similar result for $A$-valued degree $d$ functions for arbitrary finite $A$, and for functions on…
Given an alphabet size $m\in\mathbb{N}$ thought of as a constant, and $\vec{k} = (k_1,\ldots,k_m)$ whose entries sum of up $n$, the $\vec{k}$-multi-slice is the set of vectors $x\in [m]^n$ in which each symbol $i\in [m]$ appears precisely…
Motivated by the quantum speedup for dynamic programming on the Boolean hypercube by Ambainis et al. (2019), we investigate which graphs admit a similar quantum advantage. In this paper, we examine a generalization of the Boolean hypercube…
In this article we give several new results on the complexity of algorithms that learn Boolean functions from quantum queries and quantum examples. Hunziker et al. conjectured that for any class C of Boolean functions, the number of quantum…
It is shown that the counting function of n Boolean variables can be implemented with the formulae of size O(n^3.06) over the basis of all 2-input Boolean functions and of size O(n^4.54) over the standard basis. The same bounds follow for…
We establish a precise relationship between spherical harmonics and Fourier basis functions over a hypercube randomly embedded in the sphere. In particular, we give a bound on the expected Boolean noise sensitivity of a randomly rotated…
Holant problem is a general framework to study the computational complexity of counting problems. We prove a complexity dichotomy theorem for Holant problems over Boolean domain with non-negative weights. It is the first complete Holant…
We study the query complexity of finding a Tarski fixed point over the $k$-dimensional grid $\{1,\ldots,n\}^k$. Improving on the previous best upper bound of $\smash{O(\log^{\lceil 2k/3\rceil} n)}$ [FPS20], we give a new algorithm with…
For all integers $k$ with $k\geq 2$, if $G$ is a balanced $k$-partite graph on $n\geq 3$ vertices with minimum degree at least \[…
The hidden shift problem is a natural place to look for new separations between classical and quantum models of computation. One advantage of this problem is its flexibility, since it can be defined for a whole range of functions and a…
In this paper we investigate some basic results on the slice regular Besov spaces of hyperholomorphic functions on the unit ball $\mathbb{B}.$ We also characterize the boundedness, compactness and find the essential norm estimates of…
In this paper we continue the study of important Banach spaces of slice hyperholomorphic functions on the quaternionic unit ball by investigating the BMO- and VMO-spaces of slice hyperholomorphic functions. We discuss in particular…
We study Hamiltonicity in random subgraphs of the hypercube $\mathcal{Q}^n$. Our first main theorem is an optimal hitting time result. Consider the random process which includes the edges of $\mathcal{Q}^n$ according to a uniformly chosen…
