In this article, we show that the completion problem, i.e. the decision problem whether a partial structure can be completed to a full structure, is NP-complete for many combinatorial structures. While the gadgets for most reductions in…

Cai and Hemachandra used iterative constant-setting to prove that Few $\subseteq$ $\oplus$P (and thus that FewP $\subseteq$ $\oplus$P). In this paper, we note that there is a tension between the nondeterministic ambiguity of the class one…

While standard Weisfeiler-Leman vertex labels are not able to distinguish even vertices of regular graphs, there is proposed and tested family of inexpensive polynomial time vertex and edge invariants, distinguishing much more difficult…

A $k$-attractor is a combinatorial object unifying dictionary-based compression. It allows to compare the repetitiveness measures of different dictionary compressors such as Lempel-Ziv 77, the Burrows-Wheeler transform, straight line…

Verification of discrete time or continuous time dynamical systems over the reals is known to be undecidable. It is however known that undecidability does not hold for various classes of systems: if robustness is defined as the fact that…

We establish a lower bound for the complexity of multiplying two skew polynomials. The lower bound coincides with the upper bound conjectured by Caruso and Borgne in 2017, up to a log factor. We present algorithms for three special cases,…

Simple Stochastic Games (SSGs) were introduced by Anne Condon in 1990, as the simplest version of Stochastic Games for which there is no known polynomial-time algorithm. Condon showed that Stochastic Games are polynomial-time reducible to…

We analyze rank decompositions of the $3\times 3$ matrix multiplication tensor over $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$. We restrict our attention to decompositions of rank $\le 21$, as only those decompositions will yield an asymptotically faster…

Parity reasoning is challenging for Conflict-Driven Clause Learning (CDCL) SAT solvers. This has been observed even for simple formulas encoding two contradictory parity constraints with different variable orders (Chew and Heule 2020). We…

Let $S_d(n)$ denote the minimum number of wires of a depth-$d$ (unbounded fan-in) circuit encoding an error-correcting code $C:\{0, 1\}^n \to \{0, 1\}^{32n}$ with distance at least $4n$. G\'{a}l, Hansen, Kouck\'{y}, Pudl\'{a}k, and Viola…

Time Complexity is an important metric to compare algorithms based on their cardinality. The commonly used, trivial notations to qualify the same are the Big-Oh, Big-Omega, Big-Theta, Small-Oh, and Small-Omega Notations. All of them,…

We explicitly construct the first nontrivial extractors for degree $d \ge 2$ polynomial sources over $\mathbb{F}_2^n$. Our extractor requires min-entropy $k\geq n - \tilde{\Omega}(\sqrt{\log n})$. Previously, no constructions were known,…

A $d$-dimensional simplicial complex $X$ is said to support a direct product tester if any locally consistent function defined on its $k$-faces (where $k\ll d$) necessarily come from a function over its vertices. More precisely, a direct…

Vertex splitting is a graph operation that replaces a vertex $v$ with two nonadjacent new vertices and makes each neighbor of $v$ adjacent with one or both of the introduced vertices. Vertex splitting has been used in contexts from circuit…

Let R_eps denote randomized query complexity for error probability eps, and R:=R_{1/3}. In this work we investigate whether a perfect composition theorem R(f o g^n)=Omega(R(f).R(g)) holds for a relation f in {0,1}^n * S and a total inner…

This article finds the answer to the question: for any problem from which a non-deterministic algorithm can be derived which verifies whether an answer is correct or not in polynomial time (complexity class NP), is it possible to create an…

Several theorems and conjectures in communication complexity state or speculate that the complexity of a matrix in a given communication model is controlled by a related analytic or algebraic matrix parameter, e.g., rank, sign-rank,…

In this note, we give very simple constructions of unique neighbor expander graphs starting from spectral or combinatorial expander graphs of mild expansion. These constructions and their analysis are simple variants of the constructions of…

We consider the problem of decoding corrupted error correcting codes with NC$^0[\oplus]$ circuits in the classical and quantum settings. We show that any such classical circuit can correctly recover only a vanishingly small fraction of…

This paper shows that calculating $k$-CLIQUE on $n$ vertex graphs, requires the AND of at least $2^{n/4k}$ monotone, constant-depth, and polynomial-sized circuits, for sufficiently large values of $k$. The proof relies on a new, monotone,…
