A forcing set $S$ in a combinatorial problem is a set of elements such that there is a unique solution that contains all the elements in $S$. An anti-forcing set is the symmetric concept: a set $S$ of elements is called an anti-forcing set…

We multiply two $n \times n$ matrices $S,T$ over semirings in the Congested Clique model, where $n$ fully connected nodes communicate synchronously using $O(\log n)$-bit messages, within $O(nz(S)^{1/3} nz(T)^{1/3}/n + 1)$ rounds of…
